I disagree with Number four. I recall reading somewhere in the bible where it DID say to spank your child. And number one, I believe in spanking children, my parents spanked me, and I rarely ever hit people, I don't even like too.

And number 2, they only responding the only way they know how? Spanking them teaches them that doing that, is WRONG.
5. Spanking is a way to teach them, not make them be afraid of you, only afraid of the spanking.
6. Okay, what kind of positive? Getting up close to them and saying "Don't do that, it's wrong." Kids can be smart and they could start thinking "Hey, they're not gonna do anything to me if I do this, so I'm gonna do it again cause I won't get hurt for it!"
7. Ahem, I have no anger towards my parents, and they disciplined me, with a belt and a paddle. I have anger towards the idiots at my school, such as the bullies and such.
8. Where else are we supposed to spank them?
9. That's why you don't act mean to your kids. You treat them with lots of luvins. Especially after punishment.
10. That's why when they get to a certain age you quit spankings. Little kids are still learning, and you can still teach them at any age. Because once they're of a certain age they learn that hitting each other isn't right, because it just gets them into more trouble. I know I probably didn't make a lot of sense but.. I tried my best. That's my two cents.

EDIT: I'm talking spankings here, abusing children with your fists and slapping them is just plain wrong.
