Wow, I'm actually surprised that this poll is so one-sided...I thought there were a bunch of hippies around.
spankings = teh win! It's worked for generations...and now people want to question it?
:werd: But I learned to fake cry so they thought it was still effective.

It's not necessarily up to the government to say it's illegal. Particularly because a whole buncha idiots like all of you muddafockers who think kids need to get beat every once in a while would bitch about it too much. 
Personally I wouldn't spank my kids. Probably has to do with experience working in childcare. I have been both a camp counselor with kids ranging from 7-17, and a daycare teacher with kids from kindergarten thru grade 5. In my experience I've hardly even needed to raise my voice to discipline a kid.
All it takes is establishing a little respect from the kid and they will *ghasp* listen to what you say.
Usual discipline process:
"What are you doing?"
"Why are you doing that?"
"Are you supposed to be doing that?"
"Okay."

Raising your voice only works if the kid thinks he's gonna get his ass beat...if he knows you're not going to, it doesn't do any good.
Most kids do need to get their ass beat every once in a while, if you don't believe that, you're living in La-la Land.
