I don't agree with hitting old people or disabled people either, am I right about that? I see no difference with hitting kids, they're all the most vulnerable members of our society.

So..you don't agree with me, is there any particular reason for you labouring your point Niamh?
This is not about old people, nor is it about diabled children. It is about young children who some people may chose to smack as a form of discipline and discussing that.
Your opinion isn't right or wrong - neither is mine. But you appear to be coming across as though you think your way is the only correct way. It's not - it is what you believe, and what some others believe. It's not an opinion I agree on, and I don't happen to be alone in my opinion.
There really is no point in going round in circles - we disagree for the reasons we both have stated. That's the way it works sometimes.
