        Seeing how students behaved in my day when parents would spank their kids and seeing them now as an educator for the past 23 years, your conclusion is wrong!

        A swat on the fanny to a three year old for running out into the street will make a permanent mark that will keep him from being like idiots who fall over curbs from gazing lovingly at their phones while they walk.

        I got spanked by my parents and I turned out quite well. The research could be flawed or biased.

        I thank my mom for disciplining and spanking at times, because things I got spanked could have ruined my life and today I tell my mom how I’m glad she did it

        I can't believe still people hit their children! It's such lazy, destructive, counterproductive parenting, imo.

        I have children. It's spelled "discipline." I know a lot about it.

        I see no correlation between a typo and knowing more about discipline. Can you please cite your sources?

        My sources for what? My general knowledge about discipline, as well as my opinions? These are not things for which citation is necessary. Did you go to college?

        I studied psychology in college, I've read more than just "a book," I have children of my own (whom I've never, ever hit), I've worked in education... You know, I'm an informed person. What are your bona fides?
