If they are doing 'terrible' things, they learnt them from someone and punishing by violence is not teaching them any sort of valuable lesson to carry into adulthood.Sure, they do...but not -everything- they do is copying...they're human beings..you know, they can imagine, innovate, they dare to dream.....lol. Sometimes those dreams involve metal objects and light sockets, or venemous snakes (the context of the most memorable beating -and- hugging I ever received). I don't personally spank my kids to "teach them a lesson", I spank them as a last resort to keep them from killing themselves or their siblings. You could call me lazy, but here again we find a person resorting to imagining things about another just to make some comment about spanking. Good to know that I shouldn't have children though...real terrible fucker, I've always wondered about that.
There's always a better, intelligent and more productive way to inform someone (child or adult) that their behaviour is wrong rather than smack them round the arse/legs/face and say "now you've learnt your lesson". It's lazy and if you have to resort to that sort of shit you shouldn't have children.
