Basically, a child looks to the parent for love, affection, care, protection. When it's not there or not there sufficiently in quality and quantity, then a lot of destructive mind sets, reflexes, compensations get built in at an early age. These end up really fouling up future relationships wholesale until they are worked through.

One reason I refuse to give up corporal punishment in leu of the time-out / ostratization method is because of what I consider the byzantine emotional arm-twisting it requires to maintain order when used exclusively.
