This special episode is perfect for binge listeners! Listen to the complete "Should Smacking be Banned in England & Northern Ireland?" debate and enjoy an uninterrupted exploration of this thought-provoking topic. Three parents share their unfiltered thoughts and opinions, holding nothing back.

 

We start with guests presenting their quick 200-word LIFE STORIES, then move on to THE P THAT FITS ME segment, where they disclose whether they see themselves as Progressive, Predictable, or Polarising. Host and mother of ten Danusia shares her experiences in the DISHING THE DIRT segment before diving into the main discussion in GET UP ON YOUR HIGH HORSE.

 

In the IF THIS, THEN THAT section, we lay bare the consequences of smacking, without any sugarcoating. We explore the ONE HABIT each guest adopts based on their stance, highlighting how beliefs influence actions.

 

Danusia wraps up the “Should smacking be banned in England & Northern Ireland?” with her own reflections.  Consider this: Did this debate challenge your perspective or prompt a rethink of your beliefs? At Parents Who Think, we aim to spark thought, not dictate it.
