RE: Spanking Children is an Unconscious Act of Vengeance
Very good article. Children learn from their parents actions and I have two children of my own and never hit them. There are plenty of other ways to create a negative consequence for a child's actions that can be more effective and also teach them better as to why their is a negative consequence.
Yes, Groovy. Absolutely. Children have a tendency to model the behaviors of their primary caregivers, as well as other close people in their lives. In the psychological literature, this is referred to as "modeling" or "vicarious learning." However a parent chooses to treat their children, their children will absorb those actions and implement them into their own lives.
