Christian Domestic Discipline

[Social Junker]

I came across this site, and I found it, well, "interesting." I found the blog "Leah's Life" particularly interesting, as well.

From what I can tell, domestic discipline means:

• The man controls the family. Basically, it's the "bitch, get into the kitchen and make me a sandwich" mentality.
• When the wife breaks the rules, the husband gets to spank his wife in a semi-erotic way in order to punish her.

I find some of the passages from the aforementioned blog disturbing.

My husband informed me this morning we were going to have a maintenance session this evening for the first time in months.

My husband thinks a maintenance session might help me get back on track. I have neglected my health as of late and have been a bit ill, followed by an exacerbation of fibromyalgia. I am behind on housework a bit (just a bit--I've been careful to keep that going). I'm behind on homeschooling. My husband calls these the three H's-- Health, House, Homeschooling. Letting these slide will get me in trouble faster than anything.

Thankfully, my husband tells me we are not starting regular maintenance again, just doing one session to keep things from escalating until I earn a punishment spanking.

A "maintenance session" is where the wife tells the husband all of the rules that she's broken recently and then the husband administers appropriate "punishment."

Now, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with this spanking stuff, I guess a lot of people are into it when it comes to sex. But the way this whole thing is structured, the "dictator-subject" relationship between husband and wife, seems unhealthy (to say the least) to me.
