I will hate doing it when I am a parent soon, but I think in general it taught consequences early on to me when used... that was thankfully not something that was overdone (い can tell it anguished my mother to do it)... however, I knew friends who had fathers who would overdo it, do it in such a way it felt almost vengeful hateful... it should always be done with love and a comversation after... but I think it should only be when they are younger... most ppl I knew "graduated" it when they showed maturity and self-responsibility and I think thats a good model... like many things in life, as long as its done in moderation, not daily occurence (ie only serious stuff), then its quote fine imo...

I'm sorry Maru but that just sounds creepy as hell. Why on Earth is it ok and a sign of love and good parenting to hit a child, a little child specifically. Violence should never ever be the answer, I hope you change your mind on it
