is this a cruel punisment?
My daughter who is 16 was acting up and talking to boys on snapchat. Her grades are absolutely pathetic I took her over by knee and spanked her extremely hard. By the end she was on her bare butt to which received 30 licks of the wooden spoon. I think she deserved it but did I go to far.

In my opinion, yes. At age 16, you need to use methods that will make your child feel that they are maturing. Spanking in that manner can humiliate them. I think the most effective method of punishment for a teenager, is to take away their electronics until they improve on their behavior.

If you have to ask, then you went too far. Most do not respond to spanking by the age of 16. You just made her angry. I doubt that she actually learned anything.

How good were YOUR grades at that age?
I suspect you're a troll looking for a reaction, but in case you're not I challenge you to answer my question honestly.
Pain and humiliation seldom rarely solve a problem. If you did something wrong at that age & your parents did that to you how would you feel about it?

Sixteen is a little too old to be exposing her bare butt.
