There are a variety of effects that being spanked as a child can have. One of the most common effects is that it can lead to feelings of shame, guilt, and humiliation. Additionally, it can also cause children to feel angry, resentful, and aggressive. Being spanked can also interfere with the development of a trusting and secure parent-child relationship. Additionally, it can lead to children feeling anxious and fearful, and it can make them more likely to engage in future antisocial behavior.
