To Spank or Not to Spank?

What exactly do you teach your child when you spank him or hit him for an act of misbehavior?

Does it teach your child not to hit under any circumstances? Or does it teach not to hit anyone unless he's much bigger than them and can therefore get away with it? How contradictory is it for you to say that your child cannot hit or hurt anyone else — but that you can hurt him whenever you think it's appropriate? Will your toddler pick up a moral lesson here?

Before you spank or slap or hit your toddler or preschooler, remember that you are your toddler's first and best model of appropriate behavior. A parent's spanking, slapping, or hitting will therefore probably lead the child not to less aggressive behavior, but rather more. If you instead demonstrate kindness to any victim of your child's misbehavior and forceful disapproval toward your child, then that's what your child will eventually emulate (though certainly not right away).

The American Academy of Pediatrics opposes all forms of corporal punishment. All too often, corporal punishment is applied indiscriminately and arbitrarily. Spanking — and even more so slapping — most often occurs spontaneously, rather than after a minute or two of reasoned consideration. And because both are often administered in anger, spanking and slapping too easily slip over the line to punitive physical
abuse. For these reasons, we cannot recommend corporal punishment as a disciplinary measure.

Transformations in Parent and Friend Faith Support 

Predicting Adolescents' Religious Faith

Abstract

Both parents and peers have been validated by previous research as being important contributors to the development of religious faith. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the contributions of the transmission (e.g., parent church attendance) and transactional (e.g., discussions about faith) models of socialization, as well as explore the possibility that a third model, the transformation model, exists as a meaningful construct contributing to our understanding of social factors and their influence on religious faith. 

More than 4, 000 Christian adolescents (M = 16.2) completed measures of perceived support from parents and friends (e.g., faith modeling, faith dialogue) as well as a measure of religious faith. Results indicated that both parent and friend transmission and transaction variables significantly and positively predicted the measure of religious faith, with friends' constructs accounting for more variance in religious faith than that of parents. Mediated regression analyses also revealed that perceived faith support from friends mediated the influence of perceived faith support from parents on religious faith. Results are discussed within the framework of the transformation that takes place in parent—friend relationships during adolescent religious faith development.
