  • The worst parenting mistake I ever made was that the only time I ever spanked my son, I spanked him in anger. That was wrong. The outcome was that he turned into a delightful young man of whom I am extremely proud. I don't regret the spanking because although I felt much worse afterwards than he did, it served to remind me for the rest of my parenting years that there are much MUCH better ways of discipling a child than with corporal punishment. No one ever gets all the parenting issues correct. Those darn kids really should come with an instructional manual, but alas, they do not! So we are left to do the best we can.
