Spanking doesn’t do anyone good, neither on a small scale or large. The only message it sends is that it’s OK to solve things with violence (and yes, flat hand, outside clothes IS violence, even though it’s not of the extreme sort).
FYI, I have 3 very well behaved and balanced kids, and nobody’s ever lifted their hands to them. There’s no need whatsoever, there are better ways to punish (yep they do need to be set straight sometimes, of course).
