Behavior modification eh? How do you think spanking a 9 month old moderates his/her behavior? If the baby's diaper is wet or the baby is hungry or in pain, will the spanking modify his crying? Please....you don't have to hit children to modify their behaviour.

I don't think any of us are talking about spanking a 9 month old baby. However, I see nothing wrong with popping (not hard, just enough to get their attention) the hand at about a year old. It didn't harm my kids.
