Talk about a leading question (or even a misleading one.) Effective spanking doesn't have to be hard. But by lumping the word "hard" in there they're trying to make parents in favour of spanking to be sadistic savages.
Yeah, smacking kids around isn't necessarily a good thing. Violence is the last result of those who have lost patience.
I have children in their 20s and they've never known a hand in anger from either parent. They turned out fine.
Beating midgets isn't a good look when you're a giant. Try looking at yourself if you think beating children is an acceptable tool in a parenting skill box.
I like the way you put it. My parents and I only had a few times where things escalated to that point. I think when you have more kids then you are forced to compromise on how much time you can spend "Peacefully Parenting" each of them, especially when your kids are kinda rough already.
Admittedly, my children are way laid back. And I'm a Marine who has been fighting in combat sports their whole lives. The threat of dad's wrath was way more effective than me actually beating up a child.
you're supposed to be disciplinarians, not their "Friends". no wonder these kids expect participation trophies, they've never been told "no" before

Good for you man. I think that's the best way.... but I would never say never. Kids can push the limits sometimes, lol.
The type of kid who's that aggressive needs to be put in jujitsu. It really helps limit their aggression outside of the gym.
