@cdward, you are thinking of MR Spock.
Dr Benjamin Spock was the first pediatrician to study psychoanalysis to try to understand children’s needs and family dynamics. His ideas about childcare influenced several generations of parents. Didn’t he apologise in later years saying he was wrong, that is theories have created a generation of rebellious children?
BLACKKNIGHT My parents were both child psychologists and thought Dr Spock was to blame for rebellious children and a generation’s inability to take responsibility for themselves. Some of their remarks cannot be repeated, as some of their methods might be considered abuse.

Is there a child psychologist in the house with a BIG paddle or a 2-inch wide belt?

I see a LOT of children acting like this in public. It’s pretty sad the parents haven’t a clue how to make them behave.
