Yep, you’re right, it works and works wonders. My kids are and have been much better behaved than others I see. That doesn’t mean spankings aren’t still needed in our house, quite the contrary, but the mistakes and misbehaviors aren’t as egregious as others I know and see.

My eldest seems to go through spurts, good for a long while and then a few bad weeks. The teenage girl attitude has been rearing (no pun intended) its ugly head a bit more than we’d prefer. I would say, on average, she’s been spanked probably 11 or 12 times in the last year, but, again in spurts.

The twins are the most frequent, probably average about one every 2 weeks or so. My youngest has learned enough but he’s hitting the age where he is beginning to push some boundaries so a little more than once per month.

My older son is beginning to have some, shall we say, boy-his-age “reactions” to spanking and I’ve mentioned to my husband maybe in light of that we should consider giving the spankings in his room with the door closed rather than in more communal parts of the house. However, my husband has said the same “reactions” occurred in his youth around that age and that “it’s quite normal” and nothing to concern ourselves with. It didn’t arouse, again no pun intended, my concerns until I spanked him and his twin sister in each others company the other day for fighting and attitude. So we’ll see what happens next time, it could have been a one-off situation.
