I am all for a little diescipline with my own but smacking was always the last resort and even then minimal. I can count on one hand the nymber of times I had to do this. No one, and I mean no one else would walk to tell the tale if another adult did this. Kids get cranky and it takes a lot of skill and patience to understand what it is all about. When my daughter was little she would start getting cranky when we were out and we quickly realised that we always needed to carry snacks as the additional activity made her more hungry and thirsty hence cranky. She is 14 now and she still gets cranky if hungry.

This guy went too far. I do wonder what these "slaps" were though...I find it hard to see a man swinging on a toddler 4-5 times while people just watch but hey, maybe they did.
The whole corporal punishment thing will never be agreed upon, but I do think it helps . Along with other factors but thats another thread.Motivate
