i was hit ONCE - i was told if my parents got another phonecall home from school about me bullying others my dad was gonna take a belt to my ass. sure enough - i got in trouble - parents were called - and i was taken home. dad told me i had 15 minutes to get ready...my older brother helpd me stuff my pants with couch cushions and multiple jeans, and my dad laughed as he struck me...it did not hurt - but i still cried. he told me next time i wouldnt be able to cushion the blow and would do it without the cushions. did i get in trouble at school again? yes. plenty. hitting simply did not change my behavior - but my dad never HAD to hit - i feared his disapproval more than his fist...because i had loving parents who talked to me with respect and tried to teach me rather than force me to be a good man. but i do see how it works with some kids. like i said...every kid is different. some kids harbor resentment and hate for their parents who rule with an iron fist. i am glad to say that i have never been arrested, i am a college graduate, and i am still best friends with my parents. they did their job.
