I was spanked as a child. My father used a belt. I wont lie, at times it was needed and I think I turned out fine. My wife was highly agianst spanking. Still we dont do it often as we try yelling, naughty cornor, taking toys away first. Those rarely work on their own but if nothing else gets through spanking is a sure fire way to get them under control. Belt is overkill though, while I dont hold anything agianst my father for using it, I will not. I also do not think it is my place for correcting someone else from spanking their kid as long as it doesnt draw the line of abuse. For me that would be simply using too much force for the situation at hand. If one spanking doesnt do the trick 5 or 10 wont do it either.
