Wow, you're a day late and a dollar short to this conversation, aren't you?

People keep raising this mythical "what if your kid sticks a fork in a wall socket" example, which can easily be taken care of WITHOUT corporal punishment; one example would be by using outlet protectors.

If a child is in danger, isn't your first response going to be REMOVE THE CHILD FROM DANGER? Instead, all I see ITT is "swat the kid to teach them a lesson." How about NO. Remove the danger (as much as possible) in the first place, and keep an eye on your kid. How difficult is that? Apparently, too difficult for a few anons in this thread.

1) Outlet protectors aren't available everywhere in the world.

2) Outlet protectors can be removed by determined kids.

3) You have no control over power outlets in public spaces or in other people's homes.

You can do all you can to minimize dangers in your own home but you can never remove them everywhere. You still need to teach the kids what kind of situations are dangerous and make sure they will never do it, even when you're not there.

For some children, disappointing their parents is enough incentive to not do things their parents forbid them to do. For others, reasoning, eventual rewards, chores or taking away entertainment work. There are some children where none of the above work, but pain or humiliation work. Every child is different and it is the parents' job to find what works and what doesn't work for their child. So, if a swat on the butt stops a kid from doing dangerous things when nothing else works? Fine by me.

Also, it is impossible to keep an eye on a child all the time. How much experience do you have little children and older kids? You sound like someone with the book smarts but no hands-on experience.
