I don't think you should ever spank, hit, or discipline out of anger, I know I don't, if Justice or Erilyn ever really get under my skin with misbehaving (gotta love the terrible twos) I go cool off, or send them to their room until I've cooled off, then discipline occurs, they know that I'm not reacting out of anger, and it makes a huge difference (if you hit when angry you teach them to hit when angry, and you're also more likely to cross the line into real abuse).
