I had 4 children, 3 girls and a (very) late boy. I never hesitated to give them a smack on the bum when they needed it. Not very often as they learnt from this what acceptable behaviour was. It was actually the WORST punishment you could dish out to my son. Generally a "look" or a word was enough. This was the same way I was brought up.
My children never got into alcohol and drugs as they seem to these days and all are responsible caring human beings living their own well-to-do family lives with children of their own. AND they are bringing up their children the same way.
The kids aren't perfect. They still misbehave as children are prone to do but mostly they are a joy to be round.
I know many people these days who WILL NOT smack their children and the children are self-centred, abusive little brats who have no idea how to behave.
As a grandma Yeah, I like to be a bit soft on the kids and tend to spoil them attention. But they know when grandma says "NO" she means it.
