    The problem is the intellectual dishonesty whenever this topic is raised. A small slap every now and then is spoken about like it's a beating to within an inch of your life. It is important to discipline children. The consequences of not doing so later in life are *far* more devastating than a few light slaps on the arm or leg earlier in life.

      I have worked supporting children with EBD (emotional behaviour disorder) for years and have two boys and a daughter of my own, I have never smacked a child to teach them, I talk to them, you didn't learn to read by being smacked did you, also how can you say hitting other people is wrong when your doing it to them, it's bad lazy parenting, take them away from the situation and give them a strong talking, if you cant your a weak parent who struggles with conscious emotional control.

      If half these inner city kids see the back of a hand and learned SOME respect, maybe they wouldn't behave like wild dogs.
      Unfortunately mate outside your utopia there are people who only understand the fist or boot and that is because they run amok as kids when they needed to understand the difference between right and wrong.

However because he knows this he is also aware that whatever he does at school has no consequences.

    have you noticed the less strict we have gotten the more chaotic kids have become ? or grades have fallen ? kids will just use this as a threat to get what they want ... its the same with the law the less strict we have gotten the more people get away with stuff they shouldn't get away with. Kids will only adapt to this and the problem will only get a lot worse in the future.

    No, the kids should be given rules & regulations. If they break them, they should be told off, if that doesn't work and other methods of discipline doesn't work, then a slap on legs or hand should be applicable. It worked for my sisters, me, my cousins and none of us have been affected badly from them. Sick b.t.h here!

    I got smacked as a kid. Feared and hated it more than anything I have ever experienced. I was a good kid but through fear of pain. I am in my 40s with two lads and made a vow to never hit them when they were born. They're good kids. In the adult world you are not punished through physical violence. Why should it be different for kids? .... but keep the State out all the same.

    Children need boundaries! I suggest those who have never had to restrain or sma k their child have probably had paid child care, or allow their kids to abuse their parents natural authority. Giving kids sweets, bribes, extra computer time, etc in order to control their child are ruining their characters and self control. Once a kid knows that there will be consequences to rebellion they respond to verbal correction.

    It's wrong to smack a child. Adults commit far worse things than children but no-one is allowed to smack them. How would adults feel if every time they did something wrong at work their boss was allowed to give them a smack. You can't even shout at your employees these days without it being a form of bullying. You can commit murder but you don't even get a smack so why hit children

    When I was 5 I told my mum to f*** off, I know real classy. She gave me a good slap for that and I definitely deserved it! Kids can be horrible and lack the mental development to consider things like an adult, the only way is through positive reinforcement to incentivise good behaviour and if they cross the line you need to put them straight for their own benefit.

    I grew up with it and believe in it... first of all, it teaches through reverse psychology why not to do it ourselves and kids who grew up without it end up being the worst for doing it because they never experienced it... sometimes irrational kids like adults need a slap to bring them back to their senses... however beating with belts or other objects or punches is what should be outright banned altogether, which is what I grew up with... swatting them in their heads toughens them up for the real world... It taught me to duck and always be on my toes... Kids make mistakes and instead of punishing our kids we should be helping them to pick up the pieces and learn from the mistakes... Sheltered people don't know how to handle it when they grow up and are put in situations that they have no experience in....

    This is a really difficult subject, I think the sudden shock of been pulled back to scare a child is a lesson you need to teach them along with telling them why you done it. Most parents who "smack" their child as a form of punishment do not to abuse their child those children are abused out of sight so it prevents nothing in those cases. I'm a believer in firm but fair having worked with children, I wouldn't report someone for smacking a child on the bottom or on the wrist but I choose other ways to make sure my children respect me because now they are older and almost as big as me (I'm 4"11) if I used that to punish them now I wouldn't have their respect enough to listen other than to smack them so as I say its a difficult situation
