I will try not to as well. I think when both parties get fustrated, we should have a time out together. In this way my daughter will know that I treat her and myself fairly and we both are wrong to get angry at each other. Hopefully this prevents any spanking as it is usually more of the adult venting in a moment of rage rather than disciplining the child; but we use the discipline as an excuse to sound justified. No judging here. Just my opinion. I have a quick temper and I would think I am capable of spanking in a fit of anger. So I have to consciously remind myself.

Yes I do. It is used as a last resort. I do it for my 3 year old but not my 7 year old cos she knows how to listen and not defiantly disobey. My 3 year old is a bit more strong headed and the cane do work. But I stress again, I only do it as a last resort. I always talk to him first and use other discipline tactics and most of the time they work.

My girl takes the soft approach, so after speaking and explaining to her, and if she continues to be stubborn, we'll hit her on the hand to put our msg across in a harsher manner. but most of the time, she returns that with a cheeky grin.... oh well!

No way! I firmly don't agree to 'sparing the tod and spoiling the child'. There are other better ways to discpline your child. Try reasoning and showing them why misbehaviour cannot be tolerated.

Depending on their age and if they are already at a age which is able to understand and they till misbehave despite talking nicely to, I think i will spank. Last resort.

havent done it yet, but i think i will have to do it for daughter, my son is pretty quite but my daughter is completely opposite

I try not to. I have spanked my daughter once when I really frustrated, but I have never done it after.

I try not to spank but I did it once to my son! He was misbehaving even during his timeout.

No - absolutely against spanking or any form of corporal discipline.
