American College of Pediatricians: "It's okay for parents to spank"; suggests guidelines...
"All parents must set a strong example of faith in the home. Your children are being subject to much error and much soul destruction outside your home. Discipline and truth must be brought to the children. The greatest responsibility for these children will be given to the parents. Guard their souls well.” - Our Lady of the Roses, July 1, 1973
LifeSiteNews reported on December 3, 2007:
The American College of Pediatricians (ACP), a national medical association of licensed physicians and healthcare professionals who specialize in the care of infants, children, and adolescents, has issued a position statement on the use of spanking by parents, just as the Massachusetts legislature takes up a bill to ban that form of parental discipline.
Despite scientific evidence suggesting that reasonable corporal punishment by parents is beneficial to children, the United Nations has pushed nations to ban parents from using spanking as a form of discipline. That interference with parental rights is one of the issues that has caused much consternation over the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
ACP carefully reviewed the available research on corporal punishment and concludes, in its position statement on the subject, that disciplinary spanking by parents can be effective when properly used. "It is clear that parents should not solely rely upon disciplinary spanking to accomplish control of their child's behavior," says the just-released position statement. "Evidence suggests that it can be a useful and necessary part of a successful disciplinary plan."
Den Trumbull, MD, FCP, principal author of the statement explained, "When a child defies a parent's instruction, spanking is one of a few options parents can consider to correct the misbehavior." Trumbull added: "Spanking is most appropriate with children 2 to 6 years old, and when milder types of correction have failed."
ACP has created a one page handout for parents titled "Guidelines for Parental Use of Disciplinary Spanking". The guidelines advise that spanking "should be used only when the child receives at least as much encouragement and praise for good behavior as correction for problem behavior." It also says that "milder forms of discipline, such as verbal correction, extinction, logical and natural consequences, and time-out should be used initially, followed by spanking when noncompliance persists."
"Spanking should not be administered on impulse or when a parent is out of control," warns the document noting that "a spanking should always be motivated by love, for the purpose of teaching and correcting, and not for revenge or retaliation."
The guidelines also detail ages when spanking is appropriate. "Spanking is inappropriate before 15 months of age and is usually not necessary until after 18 months. It should be less necessary after 6 years and rarely, if ever, used after 10 years of age," it says. See the guidelines here: http://www.acpeds.org/fastmedia/pdf/CPGuidelines/media/Guide...
In addition to its policy statement, ACP has published an extensive review of the scientific literature on the subject of corporal punishment and its use in discipline which is available online here:

The Holy Bible on child discipline...
"He that loveth his son, frequently chastiseth him, that he may rejoice in his latter end, and not grope after the doors of his neighbors." (Ecclesiasticus 30:1)
"A horse not broken becometh stubborn, and a child left to himself will become headstrong." (Ecclesiasticus 30:8)
"Give him not liberty in his youth, and wink not at his devices. Bow down his neck while he is young, and beat his sides while he is a child, lest he grow stubborn, and regard thee not, and so be a sorrow of heart to thee." (Ecclesiasticus 30:11-12)
"He who spareth the rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him correcteth him betimes." (Proverbs 13:24)
"Withhold not correction from a child: for if thou striketh him with a rod he shall not die. Thou shalt beat him with a rod, and deliver his soul from hell." (Proverbs 23:13-14)
Note: The failure of a parent to correct a child for serious wrongs is objectively a mortal sin. In Examination of Conscience for Adults: A Guide to Spiritual Progress, Fr. Donald F. Miller lists as a mortal sin, "Have I failed to correct and punish my children for serious wrongs, or to forbid them to enter serious occasions of sin?" (p. 77, +Imprimatur: Archbishop Moses E. Kiley, May 12, 1942). As Fr. Louis Colin emphasizes, "Who loves much, chastises much." (Love One Another, p. 189)

"Humanism in your world has been created by satan. You will bring back the adages of old of 'Spare the rod, and you will spoil the child.' Discipline must be returned to the homes.” - St. Joachim, July 25, 1973
The amazing
Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/directives/directives.htm
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica
Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
DO NOT FALL DOWN
“Do not fall down in your job as a parent, for you will also be held responsible
for the condition of your children’s souls when they are brought to Us.” -
Our Lady, February 11, 1971
LACK OF DISCIPLINE AND TRUE DIRECTION
St. Anne - "Oh, how sad to look upon the homes of earth! Whatever has become
of motherhood? Bad example, such poor example I see in many homes. You must
return to the simple life. The love of riches will destroy your souls.
"Involvement of the parents in worldly pursuits and living take them farther
from the graces of Heaven. The greatest offenses to the Father is the lack of
discipline and true direction of many parents on earth today. My children--"
Veronica - And Saint Anne is placing her hand out, like this.
St. Anne - "You still have time to make restitution and atonement, and to save
your children. You must bring them back to the Sacraments. You must be an
example of modesty and true faith to them. Children will learn much by your
example." - July 25, 1973
SPARE THE ROD, SPOIL THE CHILD
Veronica - Now Saint Joachim is walking over; he's standing now between
Saint Anne and Our Lady. Now Saint Joachim is standing there. He has a long--it
looks like a rod in his hand. And he's standing there holding the rod up, and
he's saying:
St. Joachim - "In one hand you will hold the Book of life, and the other,
discipline."
Veronica - And he's brandishing the stick, like this.
St. Joachim - "Humanism in your world has been created by satan. You will bring
back the adages of old of 'Spare the rod, and you will spoil the child.'
Discipline must be returned to the homes.”- July 25, 1973
DISCIPLINE AND TRUTH
"All parents must set a strong example of faith in the home. Your children
are being subject to much error and much soul destruction outside your home.
Discipline and truth must be brought to the children. The greatest
responsibility for these children will be given to the parents. Guard their
souls well.” - Our Lady July 1, 1973
A HARD PRICE
"Your children must be protected against the world, your world of evil.
Better that they starve their bodies than to starve their souls. The seeking of
worldly gain has sent many souls into hell. The example being shown in many
homes is abominable. Many parents will pay a hard price in the loss of the
Kingdom for their lack of discipline and proper direction of the souls entrusted
to them.” - Our Lady, May 10, 1973
BE FIRM
"Man has lost his purity. All parents must guard the children's souls. Be firm
with your children. The fashions grieve all Heaven.
"The time is short, so you must make reparation now, and learn to recognize
the signs. You must be guided by the light. The Holy Spirit will always be with
you. Remain close to My Son. So many will be lost.” - Our Lady, August 5,
1970
ALL ABOUT YOU
"All about you, you see the disobedience of children. In your schools, your
government, your churches--where is the respect, the honor to your God?
"O you blind, foolish parents who do not recognize the products of your
laxity! The blow, it will be visited upon you; for as you sow, so shall you
reap. Yes, you parents are filling the bodies and minds with luxuries, but you
have chosen to starve the souls of your children. Your children are being led
farther into the darkness. We do not see the light ahead for them.” - Our
Lady, July 25, 1971
GROW MORE DISOBEDIENT AND ARROGANT
“Children grow more disobedient and arrogant to parents. Man has lost the
true meaning of love and charity of neighbor.
"I counsel you all to take your Book of life, Bible, and become
knowledgeable of these latter days. The plan for the days ahead is covered quite
thoroughly in this Book of life.
"Man would find his way to the Kingdom if he would cast aside the soul
destroyers that he now has in his home, which destroy not only his soul but the
souls of innocent children. For the love of money, these soul destroyers flood
your earth.
"The time will come, without your prayers and actions, when you will no
longer recognize sin as sin. You will become accustomed to sin as a way of life.
The numbers to be saved in the final count will be in the few.” - Our Lady,
July 15, 1973
FIRMNESS IS NEEDED
"I wish that all fathers of households stand forth and practice their role. They
will use the rod and not permit their children to go astray. Firmness is needed
in your world that is filled with laxity, permissiveness, and degradation.
"Your children have been misled by many who shall answer to the Father. As
teachers they have failed in their role. Therefore, as parents you must succeed
in yours.” - St. Joseph, March 18, 1973
STRONG DISCIPLINE AND LOVE
"I have asked you, I have directed you, as your Mother, to retire--retire
from your world that has been given to satan. You must earn your daily bread by
living in the world, but you must not become of the world. Your children must be
guided with a strong discipline and love. But this love must be coming from the
light, My children, for so few cry love, and they have lost the true meaning of
love. For love is your God the Father in Heaven.” - Our Lady, September 7,
1976
ONLY PATH
"Man has set himself into the web of satan by straying from the path given
by the Father. Discipline, self-discipline, and obedience to the rules of God
are the only path." - Our Lady, November 24, 1973

every day of holy water throughout your household. Insist even with
obstructions, insist that your children always wear a sacramental. One day
they will understand that they will repel the demons."

these sacramentals. Guard your children well. You must awaken to the
knowledge that you will not be protected without the sacramentals. Guard
