spare the rod and spoil the child
- spare the rod and spoil the child
syn: a child may have too much of his mother's blessing
mother's darlings are but milksop heroes
a man who has not been flogged is not educated
пожалієш різку, зіпсуєш дитину
≅ гарна мазана паляниця, а не дитина
тільки мазаний пиріжок гарний
дитину серцем люби, а руками гнети
коли хочеш з доні молодиці, то тримай в їжових рукавицях
кого вчать, того й дрючать
a man who has not been flogged is not educated
