Mouthy ten year old

My son is always good at school, or when he's away from home. I had him late in life, so he is like an only child. Also, his father died when he was 1 and 1/2. He's a pretty good kid for the most part, although he's always been stubborn, but lately he has the most disrespectful mouth! He yells at me and his step-father all the time. I have tried reasoning with him to no avail. Finally, I got out the paddle and I used it! This will get his attention for a day or two at most, then he's right back at it. How can I get this child to understand the importance of showing us respect, if he wants to have priveleges?

Well iam no expert but you shouldnt spank him......mabe you should use his favorite thing aginst him and make him mind by telling him he cant see or play with his favorite thing until hes good......if that doesnt work then put him in the corner or mabe talk to him throughly and tell him his right from his wrong.
