I was smacked as a child, lightly, it was a final resort if i did something insanely stupid. I'm not saying beat your kids, I'm saying if you smack them once, not enough to leave a mark, then that is legal, and will make them think about doing more stupid stuff.
That doesnt teach them how to think about what they have done.
You know what that does teach them ?
How to lie to you. How to avoid getting caught. How to be afraid of you.
Terrible, terrible.

i have also had jobs where i worked with kids and seriously just treating them like and adult and talking to them on a level is seriously the best way around it, Be it if there 4 or 14. Plus when you act like a kid and mess around a lot kids just generally like you and wont want to disappoint you or annoy you
