It never really came up as am issue when I lived in Texas. Basically everyone believed in corporal punishment, and some even believed it should be present in school. Things are waaaaay different in Washington State (where I live now) so I'm just trying to see where people overall seem to fall, since my previous view of "basically everyone agrees with it" was clearly biased based on where I lived.

Personally, I wish parents used a little more structure and discipline when raising kids. A little more hard work and a whole lot less entitlement would do those children a world of good too.
