darr195 I enjoy shopping for shoes more than clothing but don't know quite why. Maybe it's because I shop for clothes more often and became bored with it.

Do you think spanking children should be banned?

oceangirl @oceangirl (170) • United States 20 Jan 07

darr195 No, I'm against the beating and abusing, but wouldn't qualify spanking a child in a responsible, caring way as abuse. So I am against passing a law to ban spanking.

ShadyGrove @ShadyGrove (996) • United States 20 Jan 07
