What I'm about to post is JMPO only. There are probably some children out there that could use a spanking. I don't agree with people spanking other people's children, with or without the parents permission. Unless it's a family member like an aunt, uncle or grandparent. I can see it leading to unfair punishment in schools where a teacher plays favourites in class, a child getting the spanking for fighting and was never the instigator, but the one defending themself. Just a couple things that come to mind.
