• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    "Talking back" to someone usually means arguing with someone, or speaking to them with a sneer or mocking tone of voice. However, spme parents depict talking back to them differently. And with that, I'm done with pissing people off on this thread. I have argued my point, and been persuaded to...

    Yes, but knowing some people, they will often do something thay know is wrong, and if they don't get punished for doing it, they will continue to do so.

And maybe the only way the child will learn is through spanking. It depends on the child. Also, I think that part of the reason why you disagree...

    Child Discipline

    I would never spank my children, but only because I don't have the guts to do so. But if you were only spanked a couple of times in your childhood, it would make perfect sense to be terrified of your parents afterwards. If you were spanked a lot as a child, you probably wouldn't be so scarred by...
