Physical Punishment

In my opinion physical punishment is good for children in the form of a spanking. When a child physically feels pain from doingsomething wrong it makes them realize they shouldn't do that thing again or else they will have to suffer the consequences once again. This way gets it through their head that what they did is wrong and if they do it again then they will have to get another spanking and won't like that. On the other hand, parents should not go over board with physical punishment. They should spank hard enough to where the child feels the pain but not hard enough to leave a bruise or any other mark on them. It's not child abuse when you punish your child for wrong doings but it is child abuse when a parent chooses to hit or spank their child over nothing at all. That's how I feel about physical punishment for children.
