Subject: Corporal punishment

http://www.corpun.com/usd00601.htm

I would not spank my child to hurt him/her, but to demonstrate my unwillingness to tolerate unacceptable behavior. I would not spank my child in hopes of seeing tears in his/her eyes, but to jolt the child into understanding that bad things - spanking representing a generally negative outcome - can happen, at any age, to someone who is acting foolishly.

I believe that if anyone should be permitted to spank a child, it is that child’s parents. However, I would personally seek other methods of non-physical discipline before laying a hand on my child.
