Mudling's point doesn't make sense considering that now the occasional smack seems illegal, kids are worse behaved these days. Not having enough time for your kids is partly the moronic way our society operates these days. Society sucks.
Finding the root of a child's issues? It's preventing the child from becoming an issue in the first place.
There are better ways such as rewards, but bad behaviour can't go completely ignored, as I said, a combination is needed. Not too much negative, not too much positive.
Several kids have died from it? This is deliberate abuse from retards who shouldn't be parents. See below.
It seems sad that we have to maybe consider parenting lessons, so that parents can learn restraint but not be too soft. A balance is needed.
