But I think spanking is okay. A couple slaps to the tooshie for doing something bad/wrong seems like fair game. Now, downright beating your child is not! That means no punching, kicking, baseball bats, blood, broken bones, etc etc.
Belts can be used in an abusive way. I hope it wasn't your case! But I've received one or two whips. Hurts like a mother, but I knew not to do anything severely wrong again.
But to really answer your question, does physical, mental, and/or emotional punishment cause problems down the road? Oh, definitely! Getting spanked shouldn't cause physimentional distress, but beatdowns will.

You have quite the point. I think it was a combination of a few other extremes my parents went to that made the spankings an interesting factor in how I've become. Whips I'd say are never a good thing because they can case severe lashes and such. Thanks for your input!

Alright, thanks! I'm new to forums, so I wasn't quite sure where this would go. ^_^;
