I never had to beat my kids either. They grew up to be responsible people thus far.
another abuse that most JW children go through is severe "spankings" at the hall..is that still going on?

When I was still in, and old-school JWs would wax nostalgic about being able to spank their kids, I'd call 'em on it...
...suggesting that they missed it just a little too much for my comfort.
Never got in trouble for it, either.

I recall many a beating took place in my hall growing up in the 80's and 90's. We had a "library" room in the back that was the spanking room. I don't think anyone ever read any of the books back there. I remember a wooden ruler was used until one overzealous parent broke it to pieces over the backside of some poor kid. I used to get smacked upside the head whenever I started to fall asleep in my chair. Now I see kids passed out sleeping on the floor during meeting, people laughing about how cute it is, in my day that got you a beating.
