What Age Is Appropriate To Spank Your Child by Obinoscopy(m): 12:08pm On Jul 11, 2012
Hi fellas,

I'm not yet married but I hope to do so very soon. I've seen different families with their kids and have observed the different spanking policies of each of them. Some of them don't even spank their kids, others spank their kids and even go as far as giving their kids military punishment (like frog jump, stand on a foot, etc)

What do you say to this. Is it right to flog your kids, and if yes, when is the right time to flog. Is it 1 year, 2 years,...? Please I want to know as I intend going the family way soon wink

The right differs from child to child. Matter of fact some kids dont even need to be spanked to do right. It all depends on your relationship with your child

You're not yet married, nor blessed with kids and yet the first thing that comes to your mind is when to spank them??

Spank them as soon as they start becoming naughty,shikena.

My friend's son was barely two years when he received his maiden spanking from his dad. He tried to play b-ball with his dad's phone. By the time the dad was done spanking him,three years on (he'll be four in October),he dosent go near anything remotely resembling a phone when his dad is at home.

It is written in the book of Proverbs that "foolishness is bound in the heart of a child,but the rod of correction will drive it far from him". So the earlier the better o
