Whether or not smacking children is effective or even acceptable is a topic that polarises people in today’s society. Many believe we’ve become too soft and need to bring back ‘old-school’ parenting – without shame or remorse.
Those who are in favour often make the argument that they were smacked and still turned out fine.
But, imagine if our children grew up saying they turned out well because of the way they were parented rather than in spite of the way they were parented.
In this week’s podcast episode Dr Justin Coulson explains how discipline is different from punishment.
