The Honey Be Podcast – Episode 037: “Spare the Rod, Spoil the Child”

In this episode, I respond to a letter from a curious listener who wants to know whether spanking a child, (corporal punishment) is a beneficial approach to get children to follow rules. I offer ideas and strategies to reduce the possibility of long-term, negative consequences due to ineffective discipline approaches.
