Seeing how rotten kids are nowadays, and that there have 100% got to be cases where reasonable physical punishment will work to help raise certain children, I think it should be a tool parents can use. I must stress though, I'm not talking about beating the kid black and blue.

I am not sure of this. I think it can cause future issues in those kids like violent behaviours and such, but it might also depend on specific childrens personalities and how they develop. Physical punishment shouldn't be necessary, just set firm rules and stick to them. If animals can be raised properly without physical punishments then so can children. The problem with many parents these days is they don't give a fuck, they give their kids a screen to look at or lock them outside to play and then go about their days.
im on the fence. Some parents know the limits of physical punishment but some cross the line too easily.
That thing is normal, when I was a lot younger my parents used physical punishment to discipline me.
And I can see where you are coming from.
"Seeing how rotten kids are nowadays" is an outrageous thing to say! All kids?
I occasionally have to put my nephew over my knee for a very sound paddling on his bare bottom and I find it a very effective form of discipline for him. My paddle has "Attitude Adjuster" inscribed on it and it does just that!
Plenty of people who beat their kids have shittier kids than parents who use other forms of punishment and communication.
I find it stupid when people act like beating is a fix all. Some times it doesn't work or doesn't work as well as other methods.
It's kind of a difficult situation because it's hard to do that in a society where that doesn't really happen anymore. Most kids in todays western society have been raised with lots of support and have never been touched by their parents in any other way than with love and affection. The positives to this way of raising a child is that the kid grows up with enormous amounts of self-worth and confidence but the negatives to this is that it can create really narsissitic brats. When you raise a child by physically punishing them, most of the time it ensures that the child doesn't grow up to be a narssistic brat but at the same time it can cause lots of problems for the child later down the line (such as a lack of self-worth, anger issues, etc). These problems can then further isolate the child and worsen their self-worth because they will be growing up around kids where 99% of them have never been physically punished and thus have lots of self-worth. I don't know if this makes any sense but this is how I see it because I am on the fence on this issue.
I have two kids, one doesn't need it, the other is a boundary pusher and needs clear ones. No rules are hard and fast with kids. It comes down to how well your personalities mesh and your parenting style. Some actions are more appropriate than others.

beating da shit out a kid is the only way the learn.
