My parents loved me. They cared for me. They always had food on the table and fresh sheets on the bed. They took me to church and taught me good morals. They also occasionally hauled me over their knee and spanked me in public when I diserved it. Because it worked. This was not abuse.
The real abuse these days is letting kids run wild. Fathers out of the the picture....mothers who get home at 8:00pm with McDonalds...growing up infront of a computer screen...bribing kids with sugar and video games...keeping kids off the swing for fear of a nick on the knee...
The "modern parent" has produced children with elevated rates of diabetes, obesity, mental health problems, declining academic standards...you name it.
Dr. Spock's kid hung himself. Spock was supposed to be the 'model parent'.
