Child buttock-battering vs. DISCIPLINE:
Child buttock-battering for the purpose of gaining compliance is nothing more than an inherited bad habit.
Its a good idea for people to take a look at what they are doing, and learn how to DISCIPLINE instead of hit.
I think the reason why television shows like "Supernanny" and "Dr. Phil" are so popular is because that is precisely what many (not all) people are trying to do.
There are several reasons why child bottom-slapping isn't a good idea. Here are some good, quick reads recommended by professionals:
Plain Talk About Spanking
by Jordan Riak,
The Sexual Dangers of Spanking Children
by Tom Johnson,
NO VITAL ORGANS THERE, So They Say
by Lesli Taylor M.D. and Adah Maurer Ph.D.
Most compelling of all reasons to abandon this worst of all bad habits is the fact that buttock-battering can be unintentional sexual abuse for some children. There is an abundance of educational resources, testimony, documentation, etc available on the subject that can easily be found by doing a little research with the recommended reads-visit www.nospank.net.
Just a handful of those helping to raise awareness of why child bottom-slapping isn't a good idea:
American Academy of Pediatrics,
American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry,
Center For Effective Discipline,
PsycHealth Ltd Behavioral Health Professionals,
Churches' Network For Non-Violence,
Nobel Peace Prize recipient Archbishop Desmond Tutu,
Parenting In Jesus' Footsteps,
Global Initiative To End All Corporal Punishment of Children,
United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.
In 26 countries, child corporal punishment is prohibited by law (with more in process). In fact, the US was the only UN member that did not ratify the Convention on the Rights of the Child.

I agree to the majority... It is her choice of how she diciplines her children... Shes under alot of stress and the people should just leave her alone... Think back to the old days when the teachers would have used a belt or piece of wood to dicipline them... Its the same thing... I think the paparazzi should leave her alone... I feel bad for the family they are under alot of stress and they just need to let things settle for awhile...

If there is no disipline then you get caos and thats whats happened in Canada since they introduced the No spnking laws,children learn at an early age that theres no consequences for their actions,so they there for accept less and less responibility as adults and turn into exactly what we are trying to preserve them from,abusive,ignorant,morons,who turn into violent bastards because of left wing whiners,even all of the self defence cousres teach disipline,our armies teach disipline,how long is it going to take for all the bullshit politians to wake up and Be accountable! ps ps The spank is the Last resort,,,,,,,,

Kids are kids- they operate under good and bad consequences. When a toddler smacks his fellow playmate in the face he doesn't care. He doesn't feel it, so it's not his problem. Growing up this way allows the child's conscience to go numb to rules. Rules are placed to protect and help eachother, just like the spanking would protect that fellow playmate from being slapped again. It is like a criminal getting away from justice- they think somehow they are above the law. Spanking your child is terrible, just like every time a criminal is handed down a harsh sentence, but if that child doesn't learn the minor form of obedience he/she will be paying for it later in penitentiary, jail, or even the electric chair. Besides, why should a woman have the right to abort a baby before he/she is born but not be allowed to even spank him/her afterwards?
let her spank her kids if she want to that is her children we all know that she is going through some rough times give her a break she does have to care for 8 kids the
