You should never smack a child in the face, but as far as spanking goes... different story.. but that's not to say to beat a child..

I had a belt and a peach tree limb taken to my bare legs a number of times and I survived. I think when the gov't took control of the child away from the parents, they forgot to draw a line between spanking and beating..

There was a case a couple years ago where a kid had done something that landed him in court. The judge asked his grandmother (guardian) what she felt would be proper punishment. She said she thought the boy just needed a good whoopin', so the judge stood up, took off his belt, and reached it out to her..

The kids today are much different due to the current climate, which makes it hard all around..
