I take offense to the idea that spanking equates to beating. I was spanked occassionally as a child, and I never remember it actually physically hurting. It was smacking the ego more than anything. It brings unruly children back down to their level.

In fact, I would say that spanking is more humane than the pinching or ear pulling that some parents use. Those things actually do hurt.

I don't have kids, so I can't say if I actually would spank them or not, but I am fine with it as long as it doesn't actually hurt the child.
