I believe there is historical merit in blacks’ using these types of punishment strategies. Mainly, that it was better for a black child’s parent/s to inflict the punishment in an effort to get the child to adhere to societal expectations, rather than the slave master to do so. In those days, I believe this was the quickest and easiest method of punishment. There was no time for time-outs or other psychological-type punishments. I believe this practice continues today because it is a tried-and-true method. I received spankings as a child, and I have grown up to be a responsible, law-abiding citizen.
