Couldn't we just debate this spanking until the end of time? While spanking is in my mind poor parenting, what I hate are helicopter parents. They're brainwashing their children into soulless freaking automautons. It's an epidemic these days. Need proof? Google "world's worst mom". A poor New York mom was labeled such when she let her 9 yo son ride the subway alone so he could buy something. This is what pisses me off.
