There is no point in attempting ta rationalise spanking, Confused. I presume your second daughter is at that stage where she is trying to establish her own identity, which is clearly at odds with her parent(s). We've all been there. I am sure she doesn't WANT to be spanked, rather that she just can't help it. Perhaps she feels a spanking is more personal, an indication that you love her, ending in a cuddle, whereas grounding seems more vindictive, as well as being too drawn out. If what she did wrong was a quick event, then the punishment should be likewise. Inverted logic perhaps, but understandable.
There is also the possibility that her attitude is similar to Kayla's. I won't go so far as to say she enjoys a spanking, like I'm sure Kayla does, but certainly feels she does need one occasionally to tow her back into line.
The other thing to bear in mind is that a grounding, especially a long one, requires a lot of restriction for you. You will constantly have to supervise her, make sure she is not doing banned things behind your back. She will feel she is being spied on all the time and she will probably look tor any way to get round it. So, she is saying, get it over with and move on.
INXS's analogy is not sensible. We are talking about bad behaviour, not law-breaking. The idea of settling a debt by going over the Judge's knee is appealing, but hardly credible. Shame though!!
