There is a time and place for spanking. Never a beating, but a spanking, yes.
My kids probably had a lot more freedom than many of their peers, but there were some lines the threat of physical disapproval kept them from crossing.
To be blunt, I felt it was important that my children were more afraid of me than peer pressure or some drug dealer.
Neither has ever had any problems with drugs, teen pregnancy, disrespecting authority figures or lawless behavior.
What do you think of people spanking/whooping their kids?

They are both adults living their own lives now, drug/alcohol free and not in trouble with the law. I'd say it worked out well for them.
