I think I have been very clear. I don't see it as abuse.
I see it as potentially abusive and open to overuse. I think smacking your kid is retrograde and unnecessary.
There are other, ways to disciple kids that do not involve giving the a whack. That are more effective.
Using violence as a form of discipline is a lazy cop out.
