dirtyrascal7 (my boyfriend and fellow TFPer) is an absolutely excellent example of a person who was brought up with no physical violence whatsoever. He was brought up to respect others and his parents were firm, but not physical. You know what he is today? A well-adjusted, mature, respectful adult. Go figure.

Not all children are the same, as this video shows. I do not advocate family violence, but I do think that light spankings can be set in place as a punishment when being firm simply DOES NOT work. It's great your boyfriend was a good child, but not all children are that way.
