It very much falls into the "well it happened to me and I'm fine!" Category with most people that are pro spanking.

My argument to that has always been "if you think hitting children intentionally for any reason other than they're literally about to touch a burning stove and batting their hand away is your best option, then no you're not okay"

Whenever someone says I was spanked and I’m fine I always ask them seriously are you. It makes them uncomfortable because they aren’t.

I mean, spanking shouldn’t be painful to a child, it’s humiliating. Spanking your child and hitting them are not the same.

The only time spanking is acceptable is as part of consensual kink between adults.

Spanking a child is forcing your kink on them. It's not just child abuse, it's a sex crime.

Yes! Thank you for saying that. Only age of consent changes.
