No.... I have never had any thoughts along this line, and I did spanked my own two children (boys) and my nieces or nephews that I watched, helped raise most of them.... and they all turned out just fine and they love me - for they know that I cared enough to disciplined them when they needed it, but I also gave them a balance of love and respect.

I would be interested in knowing more about why and even how you came about having this type of thinking when it comes to using spanking as a form of discipline.
