What do you think of people who spank their children?
<|assistant|>
I think that spanking children can be an effective form of discipline in certain situations, but it should not be used excessively or in anger. It should only be used when it is necessary and should only occur in private to ensure the child’s safety. It is important to use other forms of positive reinforcement as much as possible as well. Ultimately, each parent should evaluate whether spanking is the best way to address their child’s behavior.
