Cannot remember the last time I saw a kid get belted by his mother in public in Australia. Probably around the same time I saw someone riding on the back of a ute, sorry, pickup. The way things are these days if a kid did get whacked by a parent in Woolworths some asswipe would be straight on the phone reporting them to the cops, and they would be there ten times faster than they would turn up to a robbery. You are being evasive. Straight question, would you belt your son? Me? Yes. That's because in serious situations you often cannot reason with a child. Like my son aged four who after a talk about playing on the live rail track twisted his face and told me "I'll do what I want." So his father calmly kneed him and gave him a smacking that caused my wife and daughter to burst into tears. He never went back to that rail line. When I was finished, my wife, through tears, told me I had did the right thing. And it wasn't a faux statement. People were killed on that rail track on a regular basis. And hey, Buhi, before you start your rights of child bullshit, I had one primary role as a father in this regard. And that was to husband my chicks through to adulthood. My son would tell you I hardly ever struck him, I think it was six years before he was struck again. I am aware of the overuse of force. It loses its impact and can brutalise. However, I find it hard to believe that there can be anything more brutal ( as I witnessed ) than the funeral of a youngster who was decapitated in an accident. The boy was buried on December 22nd 1980. I'll never forget it. There is a time and place, and there are circumstances that demand action. Anyone saying otherwise us deluded. Or the type of parent that thinks constant grounding does anything but cause resentment and social dislocation. "No, you can't go to the cinema with your friends, you are still grounded for not doing your homework two weeks ago." WTF kind of parenting is that.

There is restraint. Holding the child until it calms down and then talking. Hitting raises the anger of both child and parent. You both need to cool down. It is not giving way, quite the opposite. A show of strength, but without physically hurting deliberately. All children need to be restrained at times. As you clearly pointed out with the railway track situation.

Tone of voice works well with kid discipline especially after you've smacked them

No one wants to hit their child. Their comes a point where reason expires and action is required. Like the time my niece thought it was a great idea to put her fingers into a live socket. One warning from her mother, and back she went. She never did it again once her mother delivered a timely intervention. Ouch. Not every child is the same. Anyone, including you, thinking that you are the arbiter of appropriate parent/child barriers is wired to the moon. Many the child of liberal parents have turned out basket cases.

Strange isnt it, the working classes have no problem with corporal punishment, the libtards living in the 'burbs are the ones telling us we should reason with little Tarquin when he throws a hissy.
No wonder our city centres are now no go areas on a Fri and Sat night, feral kids been raised by feral kids roaming wild.
Parents with no parenting skills raising their inbred bastids and so the cycle continues.
You scold a child because of love and concern.
I was on a flight to Bkk years ago, some Swedes joined the flight at LHR, a few hours into the flight they became the travellers from hell, snotty kids running wild. Told to sit in their seats, no response from the "thoroughly modern" parents. Let their brats run wild.
Flight hit turbulence and a/c dropped, Little Sven smashed his face and lips all over the front seat, snot, blood etc dripping from his face.
All around clapped and applauded, serves you right you little kant.
The hours of hardship were worth it just to watch the look on these tossers faces.
