Our namby pamby PC society will continue to fall apart until somebody in authority grows a pair and deals with the drinking, discipline and lack of respect issues that afflict a sizable proportion of todays young people.

Or, thus re-inforcing that violence is the answer to everything.

I have to say the corporal punishment is a good tool to use with children but it needs to be done within a loving relationship, controlled and with the child fully understanding what is happening. It also needs to be appropriate to the "crime". It isn't easy all the time especially when the kids are trying to "kill" each other (mine are 8 and 5).
And afterwards it needs reaffirming of your love and care. That may mean cuddles/tickles/hugs as appropriate.

Sorry, but that's absolute rubbish. How on Earth can you commit a violent act towards another human being and call it
a loving relationship?
