The 90% Solution
Often cited in this ng, a study has shown that over 90% of families in
the US use spanking. Similar surveys, such as on college classes show that well over 90% of student say they were spanked as children. That would make a 9 out of 10 chance that a child or adult has been spanked. And that would mean the odds, in cases such as this, that the perpetrator had been spanked as a child very high. Or he is from that rare less than 10% that go unspanked and usually parented without punishment as a primary parenting tool. http://www.detnews.com/2005/metro/0501/12/B01-57772.htm What do you think? One of the 10% or one of the 90%? Kane |

The Maurer study found that 98% of college freshmen were spanked and 95% of professional were spanked. Somehow, the "never-spanked" (like you) are under-represented in these groups! ;-) That would make a 9 out of 10 chance that a child or adult has been spanked.

One of the 10% or one of the 90%? LOL! What are the odds that Einstein, Martin L. King or Mother Theresa were spanked??? No wonder Chris Dunga called you stupid! :-) Doan |
