Question:
My husband and I have been struggling with my punishments lately. He spanks me and it hurts, but it never seems to be a reminder for me to behave long term. He also feels that spankings aren’t doing their job, but doesn’t know what else to do. Do you have any suggestions? For the sake of our marriage, discipline has to become more effective. I know whatever your suggestions are will bring me discomfort, which I am scared for and embarrassed to have to ask, but I know I should especially for my husband. Thank you for your consideration.
Answer:
A straightforward response to your question is for your husband to establish a consequence that genuinely concerns you and that you wish to avoid experiencing again.
There are various methods through which your husband could discipline you, and spanking is not the sole option.
Your query has prompted several questions from me that need answers so I can effectively assist in saving your marriage.
To provide more informed guidance, I need a more profound comprehension of your relationship dynamics.
I recommend scheduling a 30-minute mentoring session with me, either individually or as a couple, so that I can gain a clearer understanding of your relationship and its challenges.
I tried to contact you by email, but the email bounced. Please contact me if you are interested in a mentoring session.
