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.
Well I think that is the question here, a lot of us experienced spankings as children, some to the point you're describing of not physically being in pain and some others to where they have trouble sitting down for a couple of hours.
