Well, not trying to attack u specifically, but I believe talking to kids, and guiding them to come to the conclusion that they were wrong and/or they should behave better in the future by themselves will mean a lot more than forcing it on them by doing something physical. Of course words must be used properly too, some parents cause just as much pain with words as they would by physically hitting the child. That is why I say that some parents rush parenting, and arent physically or mentally ready for the responsibilities that having a child entails. And some parents just arent meant to have kids at all, its sad to know that there are thousands of kids who are physically beaten, etc by their parents.
