Why do I continue to talk so much about spanking? B/c overwhelmed parents continue to be told to do it, to everyone's harm. It is possible to unapologetically advocate for children and extend compassion to parents who have been trapped in this.

Her college professor wanted to spank her.
If only he worked as a principal in a Texas high school, then he could spank teen girls on the regular as part of his job (or Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida Lousiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, etc. ) @IDRAedu

@CTVNews Interestingly, this story from 2020 was also in Lancaster County. I wonder if any of the jurors for Slaymaker's trial remember the previous case and if so whether that influenced their thinking at all.

@PAAttorneyGen Many perpetrators with a similar M.O. have escaped justice (incl. sex offender registry) by playing the "discipline card."
To prevent more abuse of this type, we must teach kids that some adults may have bad reasons for wanting to spank them. @PAHumanServices@GovernorShapiro
