• Gender and Discipline(The Open Text)
  I have been practicing phsycian for 15 years, including a pediatric internship.
  I have seen a lot of child abuse. Corporl punishment , appropriately utilized, is not child abuse. Those who
  assert otherwise are the real fringe element. Most male perpetrators of abuse are the male companions
  of single or divorced mothers boyfriends, family members, and stepfathers.
• Comments on the Sudy of Corporal Punishment(Alta Vista)
• In all fairness, there are other ways to discipline for certain undesired behaviors. However, when it comes
  down to a situation of outright defiance,the best thing for that child is a good spanking administered with
  love, patience and understanding.
  Unfortunately, some parents and educators forgot that love and understanding must be applied along
  with corporal punishment or any type of discipline. It must be remembered that discipline and love are not
  opposites but that one is functioning with the other. In other words, corporal punishment must involve
  letting the child know what has been done wrong and why the punishment is necessary, not just beating
  the child in hopes that he will understand. Dr.Dobson comes to these conclusions not through empirical
  research but through years of experience as a teacher and parent.
