Did you know spanking can cause some children to experience sexual arousal? I didn’t either until recent months.
In this week’s episode of Unfeigned Christianity, we dive into this with my guest sharing personal experience and research on the topic.
In the expanded version, we discuss how to discipline children without spanking them, particularly when it requires physical restraint. You can access that version here.
Mentioned in the episode is an essay: Why spanking children is sexual violence and a violation of God given bodily autonomy.
