And why is it weird, Johnny? It's not weird to me at all. In fact, it allows people who are pro-spanking to demonstrate that spanking is not the same thing as child abuse. A normal parent who spanks would never leave a child bruised or with broken bones, whereas someone who abuses a child could.
I think it's a good poll to examine what exactly is considered appropriate when it comes to punishing children physically.
