I'm with the leave parenting to the parents crowd.
If you can't show "extreme displeasure" with words, then I feel a little sorry for you.
As for "most parents", I don't know anyone who thinks it is a good thing to hit their child. It may be a cultural thing, but at least here in scandinavia, parents hitting their children is seen as a thing of the past.
