But there is a big difference between a parent administering some mild form of physical punishment and some of the actions advocated ie assaulting someone else's kid.
There must be many kids like yours who are perfect little angels at home but behave very differently when you are not about. As I previously said, they have got everything worked out and know that if someone else complains about their behaviour you will probably say it wasn't them or the situation must have been exaggerated.

I would never hit another persons kids but firmly believe that parents and others in charge of the kids should be able to smack where it is warranted.
