I was spanked as a child and I'm VERY HAPPY my mother did it. I never did the same thing wrong twice. This timeout thing, to me, is a joke. "Go sit in the corner Johnny and think about what you did" Come on, how many of ya'll would have seriously sat in the corner and thought about what you did wrong? Few children view timeout as a serious punishment. At first, timeout can be useful, but then the child realizes that it's no big deal and could continue the behavior. Nobody wants to gets spanked. Thus, the child won't misbehave as much.
I turned out just fine by the way!
