I usually ask the parent if they want any help...

Seriously, it's none of my business. I don't make assumptions about what has transpired up until the point that I see somebody spank their kids.
I don't have kids, but I know it's hard to enforce discipline.
When I was in high school, the teachers were allowed to spank the kids with rather large planks of wood...some teachers had special paddles with holes drilled, so they could really get some speed on the sucker. Did it work? Mostly. And we're talking 18 year-old children here.
Usually spanking works best as a deterrent, I think. Just the sight of the paddle would make kids behave.
Heck, my mother spanked me once...
Once.
