Spanking is a form of discipline. Whether you agree with it or not, I feel should be up to the parents but also only used for the most severe infractions. Was little Leah really misbehaving? Kate Gosselin professes to be a Christian let alone a Christian mom. The Bible is clear about punishing children. It’s only to be done during times of direct disobedience or if the child could be harmed or harm others. NOT OUT OF ANNOYANCE!! Not out of getting on my nerves! She was outside, using an out side toy. Kate could have moved! Lord knows, she had the TV crew, her assistants and all near by so there was nothing stopping her from moving away to continue her call. God is also clear you do not correct your children out of anger. That is loss of control! Discipline is to be loving correction whether it be grounding, spanking or time out. If you are in anger you need to remove yourself. It is pathetic Kate’s remaining children were the ones comforting Leah and basically doing Kate’s job. I think the person who should be disciplined is Kate. She is in direct violation of God’s design for Christianity let alone marriage. She is putting greed and lust and Idol worship of fame and fortune before her marriage vows and children. Someone needs to bend Kate Gosselin over their knee and give her a good old fashioned wooden paddle spankin!
