Today, I took my four year old son to the playground. When it was time to go, he squirmed out of my arms back to the jungle gym. Not being the type of mother to put up with bad behavior, I swatted his rear and told him we had to go. That's when I realized I'd just spanked the wrong child who was wearing the same coat as my son. FML

i bet that went done well with the Kids mother.....

Forever, you can't compare molestation and spanking. I was spanked as a child, and I'm not brainwashed or scarred. I have a 4 year old, and while I have not spanked her, once she is old enough to know right from wrong, I will if I need to. Corporal punishment will not land you in jail. Beating your child will. But spanking, no. And I like how you used both "their" and "there" incorrectly in the same sentence. That was amusing.

some children need a good spanking now and days...

YDI, I would've looked him in the eye, so I knew I didn't pick up some other weird kid.

meh, they all look the same. probably needed a spanking too

My sister and I were never spanked as a kid or grounded. We spent a lot of family time together & just knew the right way to act. All it can take is a look or guidance from parents to keep their kids in line. Also, both my parents are teachers and deal with kids on a daily basis for the past 20 years, so they are capable of disciplining kids without being violent.

F these low life's parents saying discipline is bad for your child it's not having your kid running around all wild and crying in store not watching them that's bad parting there as you your being a great mom

How do you mix your kid up with another kid?
