My parents claim they spanked me but I don't remember ever actually getting spanked. I spank my 1-year-old very occasionally. It doesn't hurt, it's through a diaper. He doesn't understand enough to reason with him and yelling at him makes him giggle. He very quickly learned not to go near the woodstove after a couple very mild (but very quick) spankings.
Outlawing it is ludicrous.
