    People generally raise their children the way that they were raised. I was spanked as a child with a belt, and I think it kept me in line,but it was in addition to knowing that my parents loved me. I think now-a-days, people don’t know where to draw the line while disciplining children, which causes all the commotion. Some people feel that hitting with shoes, and brooms, and other objects is a form of discipline, because a lot of times, especially back in the 70’s, parents(black parents) would grab the closest thing they could reach and bop you, and it wasn’t considered child abuse, so it’s passed on to the next generation. But because it was instilled in us,(african-americans) as children, that a spanking is what you got when you were misbehaving, and it seemed to serve its purpose, it’s true that you will see alot of black parents spanking more that white parents, but it’s also true that people do need to learn where and how to draw the line.
