I'm saying it wouldn't be all that bad if this guy got hurt in a football game. It's a little different than hitting a child with a stick. I wouldn't consider it discipline, either.

Are there other ways that people can ( and have tried) to discipline their children? Of course there are, but to come out and insinuate that all spanking is considered child abuse is ridiculous.

I didn't insinuate anything. This man repeatedly hit his child with a stick. A week later, there were still marks on the kid's body. It doesn't take a high horse or even a Shetland pony to know that this is wrong. You can't argue that. Unless you can, and I gotta admit I'm kinda curious what an argument
for it would sound like.
