Hi
I was over the limit, yesterday, so here's this ...
I disagree with Michael. Field observations (unless very
sophisticated) and testimonials are no substitute for the stronger forms
of information gathering we call research (field observations sometimes
deserve that label). There are a

Again from yesterday ... already at my limit and not even 8am!

I've found it interesting that every year since I began teaching at the
college level (in 1993), when I ask how many of my Human Development and
Child Psychology students were ever spanked, the numbers become smaller.
In 1993 when I would ask that question, maybe one or two out of a class of
40 or
Hi
In my culture and psych class I use an activity on spanking centered around a

What an interesting article, Jim. It agrees with developmental findings
that I've read about African-American attitudes toward parenting, but
honestly, I've hesitated to discuss this in class. I have very few black
students, and worry that if I interjected this, it could be oversimplified
and
Hi
I tend to keep the discussion pretty focused on the empirical questions implied
by the paper (are Black kids less likely than White kids to throw temper
tantrums, do Black parents use spanking more, are kids who are spanked [black
or white] less likely to throw temper tantrums) and on what
Here are some references, some with tangential findings:1. This study finds
that African-American parents are more likely to deliver mild physical
punishment in an atmosphere of helping children be better, while
Caucasian-American parents (have we ruled on the use caucasian yet?) say
it's wrong,

Well that's not likely to change, but I agree that you have a point.
Generally someone makes a point and provides a reference and the point
tends to be considered proven and true.
