I tanned my son’s hide just this last weekend for talking back to me in a smart*ss way.
Last time I spanked my daughter was at age 6. She was throwing a tantrum... kicking, screaming, crying, throwing things, flailing around all because she didn’t get her way. I turned her over my knee and smacked her bare butt with the palm of my hand ten times. She cried but knew it was time to stop. Never had to spank her again.
