Dr. \u200cBenjamin Spock, \u200cknown for his progressive parenting advice, strongly opposed spanking, believing\u200d it teaches children that might makes right. This view has been widely accepted in American parenting culture, with many experts condemning physical punishment.<\/p>\n<p>However, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/study-shows-vaccine-lotteries-may-be-ineffective\/\" title=\"Study shows vaccine lotteries may be ineffective\">recent study published<\/a> in &#8220;Marriage &#038; Family Review&#8221; challenges \u200cthe prevailing consensus, suggesting\u2063 the negative effects of spanking might\u200b be overstated. Authored by Robert E. Larzelere, the study\u2063 indicates that \u200dspanking accounts for less than one percent of variations \u2062in child\u2062 outcomes and may only lead to problems when used excessively or maliciously. Larzelere emphasizes the potential\u200b effectiveness of\u200d spanking when applied sparingly and in the right context, \u2064particularly for children aged 2 to \u20646.<\/p>\n<p>The study points out that minimal spanking could even correlate with slightly\u200c better behavioral outcomes in certain situations. This \u200dfinding aligns with previous research\u2062 that also \u2064questions the blanket condemnation of all forms of spanking, suggesting that the narrative\u2062 surrounding the practice has been \u200dshaped more by\u200b ideological biases than \u2062by conclusive evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jill-biden-vogue-cover-sparks-concern-over-her-lust-for-power\/\" title=\"Jill Biden Vogue Cover Sparks Concern Over Her &#039;Lust For Power&#039;\">article\u2063 raises questions<\/a> about \u2064the understanding of discipline, suggesting\u2064 that the potential benefits of moderate spanking, when \u200dused wisely, may have been overlooked in the ongoing debate about child-rearing\u200b practices.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> <script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>If Dr. Benjamin Spock hadn&rsquo;t been cremated, he&rsquo;d be rolling over in his grave right now.<\/p>\n<p>As many who were reared on the lefty pediatrician&rsquo;s methods, or who perhaps have tried his best-selling book &ldquo;Baby and Child Care,&rdquo; will know, Spock was one of those who decried the spanking of children. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1985\/06\/19\/garden\/parents-and-experts-split-on-spanking.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The New York Times<\/a>, in the 1985 edition of the book, he said that spanking taught &ldquo;children that the larger, stronger person has the power to get his way whether or not he is in the right&rdquo; and that the &ldquo;American tradition of spanking&rdquo; might <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/ap-dancing-stars-pro-arrested-domestic-violence-charge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cause violence<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Indeed, most child-care experts today disapprove of physical punishment,&rdquo; the Times reported in 1985.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Dr. John F. Knutson, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Iowa, contends that spanking is &lsquo;a seductively simple strategy for training children.&rsquo; Over the last six years, Dr. Knutson has surveyed 9,000 middle-class college students 18 to 20 years old. More than 80 percent reported that they had been spanked by their parents, 40 percent said they were struck with objects, including belts, switches and hairbrushes, and 10 percent described being injured by parents&rsquo; disciplinary actions.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>That accepted wisdom almost 40 years ago has become virtually ingrained in the American way of child-rearing: Any talk of spanking a child as a form of punishment, unless one is among like-minded parents, is met with recoil and disgust. We don&rsquo;t know&nbsp;<em>why;<\/em> we just know that it&rsquo;s violence against children, and it&rsquo;s&nbsp;<em>wrong<\/em>.

Larzelere, endowed professor of parenting research at Oklahoma State University. Larzelere, the Post reported, said &ldquo;that spanking does not lead to negative consequences unless it is administered excessively or from a place of malice rather than genuine concern for the child.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I have been doing research for 40 years to try to answer two questions,&rdquo; he told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psypost.org\/does-spanking-harm-child-development-major-study-challenges-common-beliefs\/#google_vignette\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PsyPost<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;[One]: What disciplinary responses are more effective than spanking, so that we can recommend them to replace spanking? Answer so far: none, although parents should prefer milder and verbal disciplinary responses as much as possible.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;[Two]: Although it is clear that spanking is correlated with adverse outcomes such as delinquency, does it cause those outcomes (like smoking) or not (like hospitalization, which is also associated with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/heart-failure-is-deadlier-for-this-demographic-are-you-at-risk\/\" title=\"Heart Failure Is Deadlier for This Demographic \u2013 Are You at Risk?\">worse outcomes compared<\/a> to those never hospitalized)?<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Answer so far: Spanking does not cause harmful outcomes unless it is used too often or too severely or out of meanness rather than out of concern for the child&rsquo;s welfare.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Spanking, the study found, could only account for 0.64 percent of variances in externalizing issues. Even less of internalizing issues was attributable to the practice.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;In contrast, the slope method showed slightly more beneficial-looking effects. For instance, spanking was associated with a minor decrease in externalizing problems, but this effect was so small that it explained less than 0.1 percent of the variance,&rdquo; PsyPost reported.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;This suggests that spanking has a minimal impact on externalizing problems, internalizing problems, cognitive performance, and social competence. The results indicate that previous reports of the harmful effects of spanking may have been overstated due to residual confounding &mdash; meaning other unmeasured factors may have influenced the negative outcomes rather than spanking itself.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The most compelling evidence came from so-called &ldquo;back-up spanking,&rdquo; in which two open-handed swats are applied to the backside of a child who isn&rsquo;t cooperating with time outs. This was found to be much more effective than allowing a child to come back from a time-out period <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/slate-ignores-consequences-youth-gender-transition-claims-concerns-rooted-eugenics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">with no consequences<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s worth noting that there is a narrow age band in which spanking is maximally effective, generally between ages 2 and 6. Between ages 8 and 11, spanking was found to lead to worse outcomes, albeit slightly so.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Although different things work for different children (or for the same child at different times), spanking can be an effective disciplinary tool under some circumstances,&rdquo; Larzelere said.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The most effective way to use spanking is two open-handed swats to the bottom of 2- to 6-year-olds when they refuse to cooperate with milder disciplinary responses, such as time-out.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When used that way, defiant children learn to cooperate with the milder disciplinary responses, so that spanking can be phased out. Similarly, timeout and privilege removal can be used to back up verbal explanations and negotiations, which should be preferred by all parents when appropriate.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>As PsyPost noted, this isn&rsquo;t the first study to reach this finding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/students-surprise-year-district-reintroduces-old-school-punishment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">about spanking<\/a>, with a similar paper published in the journal Child Development in 2021 finding &ldquo;occasional, mild spanking had minimal negative effects on child behavior.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>And, as Larzelere noted, studies had &ldquo;rarely tried to distinguish between more and less effective ways to use spanking or other disciplinary techniques.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The studies of two-swat back-up spanking were done by one research clinic in the 1980s to try to find an effective alternative for back-up spanking,&rdquo; Larzelere said. &ldquo;They showed that a brief room isolation was just as effective on average, although they questioned whether rooms in homes would be as suitable for room isolation as in their clinic.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;But hardly any conclusive research has been done since then. The failure to specify precise implementations and appropriate situations in research since 1990 may help explain why clinical treatments for oppositional defiance in young children are half as effective now as they were 30 to 50 years ago when psychotherapists trained parents to use spanking (or a brief room isolation) to enforce cooperation with time-out.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Gosh, you don&rsquo;t say.<\/p>\n<p>This is what happens when you, pardon the pun, throw the baby out with the bathwater. Domestic abuse of any kind, child abuse included, is bad. Spanking is not <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/sick-ai-generated-child-abuse-images-astoundingly-realistic-distracting-investigators-real-cases\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">child abuse<\/a>; it&rsquo;s a physical action that demonstrates to misbehaving children that actions have consequences when they cannot understand the very obvious relationship between the two in words. By teaching children this simple lesson, we show our love for them and make their lives less difficult further down the road.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, we&rsquo;ve been taught, for the better part of half-a-century, in some cases more, that spanking&nbsp;<em>is<\/em> abuse. Not only that, it leads to a peculiarly American kind of violence. This was liberal&nbsp;<em>a priori&nbsp;<\/em>thinking, which turned out to be very, very wrong. Will they admit as much? Of course not.

Many who grew up with his parenting advice or read his popular book &#8220;Baby and Child Care&#8221; are aware that he opposed spanking children. In the 1985 edition of his book, he argued that spanking teaches children that a stronger person can impose their will regardless of right or wrong, and suggested that the American practice of spanking could lead to violence. The New York Times reported in 1985 that most child-care experts disapproved of physical punishment, citing Dr. John F. Knutson from the University of Iowa, who found through surveying 9,000 college students aged 18 to 20 that over 80% had been spanked by their parents; many reported being hit with objects and some even sustained injuries.<\/p>\n<p>This perspective has become deeply embedded in American parenting culture: discussions about spanking are often met with strong disapproval unless among those who share similar views. However, a recent study published in Marriage &amp; Family Review suggests otherwise; it found that spanking accounted for less than 1% of variations in child outcomes, indicating its negative effects may be overstated.<\/p>\n<p>The study&#8217;s author, Robert E. Larzelere from Oklahoma State University, stated that spanking does not result in negative consequences unless used excessively or out of malice rather than concern for the child&#8217;s well-being. He has spent four decades researching effective disciplinary methods and concluded there are no better alternatives to replace spanking entirely\u2014though milder responses should be preferred when possible.<\/p>\n<p>The research indicated minimal impact from spanking on behavioral issues and suggested previous claims about its harmful effects might have been exaggerated due to other unmeasured factors influencing outcomes instead of the act itself.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, &#8220;back-up spanking,&#8221; which involves two open-handed swats when a child refuses time-out cooperation was shown to be more effective than allowing them back without consequences. Spanking appears most effective for children aged two to six but can lead to worse outcomes for older kids.<\/p>\n<p>Larzelere emphasized using mild disciplinary methods alongside occasional light spankings as necessary tools under specific circumstances while noting past studies have rarely differentiated between various forms and effectiveness levels of discipline techniques.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, while domestic abuse is unequivocally wrong\u2014including child abuse\u2014spanking is not synonymous with such abuse; it serves as a physical reminder for misbehaving children about consequences when they cannot grasp this concept verbally yet\u2014a lesson rooted in love aimed at easing their future challenges<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2357161,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Spanking.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[38995,43368,17459,28873,43367],"class_list":["post-2357160","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-child-development","tag-controversial-research","tag-parenting","tag-psychology","tag-spanking"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Spanking.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2357160","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2357160"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2357160\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2357161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2357160"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2357160"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2357160"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
