Spanking is bad M'kay
I've heard the argument that children don't understand reason so that is a good reason to use corporal punishment, but... if they don't understand reason they certainly aren't going to understand you hitting them. That being said I have hit my children out of frustration. I try never to do that, but I understand why people hit their children. Much of the reason I have done it was because it was done to me so I'm hard wired to hit them. I haven't in a while and have apologized every time I have lost my cool.
