Integrating Psychology and Christianity |

To Spank or Not |
The issue of whether or not parents should spank their children is a very volatile issue and raises strong feelings on both sides of the issue. Modern psychology generally believes that spanking is a bad practice and is harmful to children. The conservative Christian coalition generally takes the view that the practice of spanking is biblically mandated and that any parent who really loves their children will spank them. There are many others who believe strongly one way or another for a very diverse set of reasons. |

Tolerance sounds like the way to go. But when we consider the issue carefully we discover that there are two unintended side effects of the policy of tolerance. |
