Hell if you swat a kid's butt (padded with a diaper even) with your bare hand in a store you'd better be prepared to spend the night in jail and never see your kids again.

Really? I rarely slap my kids...but I have.My son who is 9 like 3 or 4 times ever.A quick slap on the legs.

Last time WAS in public , on the way back from a restaurant actually.

Walking along the street , it was like he didn't think I would actually do it. ;-)))

He was being a bitch to Anthony actuially , who had been nothing but good with him.

Come on , my kids would piss there pants laughing if I gave them a "time out"

Seriously, you are not allowed to slap them?

Jeeze, I would think the chance of pissing off Anthony would be enough to scare a kid into behaving! LOL!

There have been many times where people have spanked misbehaving kids in stores and have had the police show up before they left the store. In one particular one that I remember, the management separated the mother from her daughter and kept them in different rooms for three hours while the police grilled both of them - the little girl was terrified and they were threatening the mother with never seeing her daughter again.
It really does happen. Smack your kid's butt in public and you're risking it all these days.

He had a way of folding his big leather belt in half and pushing the ends together, then *SNAPPPING* them taut - the mere sound of that could straighten up a room of misbehaving kids instantly.

My dad did that one too!

Irish?

;-)))

Well, my elder son is named after my great-great grandfather, Kelsey... you tell me

Actually I'm Irish and Scottish, so I fight with myself all the time.

(Got a little french thrown in there too from my mom's side but please don't hold that against me. It's a very, very little bit!)
