Whether it's spankings, time-outs, withholding privileges or some combination, everyone has an opinion on what's the best way to raise good kids.  </p><p>Reenforcing positive behavior and correcting negative actions in our children is important in most households but are their differences across ethnic lines?</p><p>FANTI examines <a href="https://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2002/06/spanking">corporal punishment</a> and whether or not it's an <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2719514/">effective</a> means of discipline? </p><p>Jarrett and Tre'vell take a look at their own upbringings, what they think spanking did (or didn't do) to impact the kind of adults they grew up to be and reveal why they think some people actually deserved a good chancla to the head. </p><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/IGINGHHlsRpKe5DgXkCmYfCh8YvkjFg1m_4Rq8T7aVe-nC6l_MQca_oJRdn4bqFtKMRLgKU2dXKGO0MkxbHjJF0nNo8wdpPtOvJyNYv6IwS4kjtBLe3e8ga-g6HGFNUHpdPGcjeU" /><p>But first...</p><p><strong>A Tough Question</strong></p><p>Chris F wants to know where Jarrett and Tre'vell stand on the b-word. </p><p><strong>DIS/Honorable Mentions</strong></p><p> </p><p>This week, Jarrett has a mention for the US Census.
