Me and my dad would still scuff it out every once in a while though, but for the most part I really don't thinking hitting kids is that bad. Sometimes pain is a good way to teach, just like when it comes to a hot stove. We feel pain for a reason and it's to learn not to do whatever caused that pain, it's a good way to teach consequences.In the hot stove scenario, why not teach them by letting them burn their hand???
That's what I'm talking about. You let them burn themselves and they learn not to touch anything hot again.
