Whoopins ain't never helped nobody. They just made us mad at whoever gave us one, and taught us that we don't like pain. Plus, ain't nobody tryin to get beat like a slave no more...This is 2018!  This week we touch on the tough and taboo subject of child discipline in the black community, more specifically, "spankings." We all experienced them and a lot of us like to think that they helped keep us in line and made us who we are today. However, studies show that spankings can cause much more damage to a child's development than just physical. Join us as we have this difficult conversation and explore alternatives to this troubling choice of discipline.  Send input for this week's episode along with any questions to [email protected] so we can read them on the show.
