    I'd rather cop a whack from my old man, for being an idiot, than cop a baton from a cop, or a bashing in prison because I kept on being an idiot. Dr Spock admitted, after raising a brat or two that he probably should've used sterner methods.
    But by then he had misled a whole generation of 'modern' parents. You now see the fruits of that stupid experiment all around you.
