For some, it means a small swat on the hiney, and vice versa for some it means going over a lap and using an implement to swat kids bottoms. I want to ask this question: what does "a spanking" in your house constitute? In my house, first and foremost 'a spanking' means 'bare bottom.' I will usually pick them up , pull down pants, if they are older they will, and put her over my knee. I spank around 3 or 4 times 'not very hard', only with my bare palm (not a spoon etc). After I spank, we will hug and make up, of course. Can you define what a spanking constitutes with your kids, if you do spank? (do you take down pants, put them over your lap or whatever...) I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Name: Email: Subject
