Not my idea of violence. A smack on the ass is hardly a vicious blow, done intentionally to one of the fattiest parts of the body to reduce harm. Young children don't fully understand how to use reason yet, but they understand the consequences of their immediate actions.
It's all good and well to take this stance to never lay a single finger on your kids, but some kids are assholes regardless of you as a person.
If your child grows up an aggressive procacatuer because you were too PC to give him a spanking he will get in physical confrontations in the real world. It's not making mistakes that kids should be afraid of, it's getting into mischief.
