Corporal punishment (for children) is and always has been the least effective way to teach a child.
It is a parent taking out their anger, impatience and frustration on a child.
Not cool.
Not effective.
How do I know this? I was a child whose parents believed in the "spare the rod, spoil the child" saying.
It did nothing to correct my behaviors and only taught me to be sneakier.
I never used it with my children and they turned out just fine.
