Private education would make this a mute point. Each parent gets to make the choice of how their children are educated in a free society.
I choose to have other things happen which do not involve physical touching on my children. You are free to choose otherwise.
Perhaps you would like a system which would allow parents in government schools the ability to formally cede their parental rights to physical punishment to government employees on a person by person basis. Merely speculation.
You are gagging on a gnat and swallowing a camel.
I have no idea what this phrase means.
All I know is that yes, I have spanked my progeny with my hand and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. When I was in public school until the great busing pograms began in 1970, corporal punishment was swift and sure and the schools were better for it. Nowadays, public school teachers I know lament the lack of control in the classroom and of course have no discipline but detention and suspension. Private schools I attended had serious corporal punishment and there was no exception unless in a wheelchair or something of that nature or being a girl.

That's OK. Most of what you've said on this thread is bland and meaningless.
You sound more like a robot than a human being.
