    I teach parents and teachers about non-violent, effective guidance and discipline techniques with children. I often encounter resistance from African Americans who believe hitting/spanking is OK. It has been my experience that many African-American parents disapprove of hitting and spanking as discipline, but when those same behaviors are called ‘giving a whooping,’ it is acceptable. How can I get them to consider otherwise?
