No, smacking solves nothing. I might be in the minority but physically punishing a child truly isn't the solution if you try your best to be a good parent. I was beaten properly, not a light tap but beaten. It solved nothing with me. I wasn't a bad kid, but I did have bad parents who took their moods out on me and never once said they loved me. My father died last December, I hadn't seen him since I was 16 and didn't even bother to go to the funeral. My own child I tell him I love him every single day of the week, he knows I am always there to back him up, and the once I shouted at him as a child through my own temper I still think about, and that was only shouting not hitting. He doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, is very respectful, he isn't disobedient nor mollycoddled, he is a tough guy, sky-dived swam with sharks and suchlike. It's been a long uphill battle as his mum died in 2002, but she would be proud of how he has turned out.
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
