Occasionally my daughters will visit with my grandchildren. My daughters are having been raised by my crazy ex-wife and therefore disciplined perhaps without cause, choose to warn, treaten, time our, reason, etc. with no actual punishment being dispatched with my grandchildren. My grandchildren needless to say are not well behaved.
My son who is 16 years younger (he's now 26) than his half-sisters and was not raised by my ex-wife usually remarks: "Thank God ya'll beat the crap out of me when I was young." He says this just after his sisters, nieces and nephew leave.
While I only remember spanking him once personally (his mother appearently found more wrong with his behavior than I).
