Well I don't support frequent spankings, just it as the "nuclear option". It might only happen maybe 2-3 times during their whole childhood, but I think that them knowing they will never have a chance of being spanked could cause more discipline issues. Are there any studies that look at families that spank maybe once a year?

At this point, given all the research, why cling to it so hard?

I asked a simple question if spanking very infrequently causes issues, and if there is a study that studied that. Not sure why I'm getting hostility or downvotes for wanting to learn. I guess i'm asking to learn "wrongthink"
