If you married a woman with children, and the children have had no real discipline in the past, how do you discipline them without them hating you???  Children need discipline....

It's a difficult situation no matter how u look at it...and I'm afraid it affects children later in life also...

I somewhat agree, but some people consider even the smallest degree of spanking as child abuse. I think this is why the children of the world are less respectful of there parents and become such problems as they reach there teens....

lol...that's funny...and I'm not kicking you for laugh, but I do believe many children don't get what is needed in there life because there parents want to pawn them off.....again...I know you were joking, I was just making a statement..
