I have never hit, spanked or slapped my almost-six-year-old daughter.
She is a spirited one, and we have had more than our share of (ahem) disagreements.
But I simply could not ever imagine raising a hand to her in anger. I just don't understand how parents can do it.

Anger? Do you believe that those who spank their kids do it because they're angry? Love has more to do with it than anger.
