"Should I spank my child ?"
I love my child too much to ever spank him. It
might warp their personality.
Family experts say we should not spank !
2Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not
thy soul spare for his crying. Prov.

for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall
not die. Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and
shalt deliver his soul from hell. Prov. 2313-14
3Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child
but the rod of correction shall drive it far from
him.. Prov. 2215 The rod and reproof give
wisdom but a child left to himself bringeth his
mother to shame. Prov. 2915
4He that spareth his rod hateth his son but he
that loveth him chasteneth him betimes Prov.
