I don't know about you... but I grew up with corporal punishment and I was beaten black and blue if I did anything wrong... if i fought with my brothers..if i looked the wrong way.. anything... but u know.. i turned out great... i'm polite...i don't bully.. etc.. u get my point... :) so really.. I don't see a problem with handling children in that manner as it worked for us for all those years.. the reason why kids are so bad now-a-days is coz there is no punishment for them anymore and they don't fear u or respect u anymore..

Never say Never for fear of Forever!!
