What a great thread....I don't know how old everyone is, but I'm 39, and it's awesome to hear that no matter what your background was/is the whoopins' were the same for all of us here.
I have two girls and two step kids, and I do not spare the rod on any of them. I don't think I do it with the severity that I got it, but it won't kill them to get a whoopin' (when needed). Most of the time just a glare of the eyes, and/or a raised voice will straighten them right up.
Thanks mom, dad, and grandma.
