Spank your child and create a criminal

[I of the Storm]

OT, I generally mistrust any data that makes a connection between certain educational practises with children and random sociological topics with adults. Too far fetched and the matter is too complex imo.

Anyway, I don't spank my daughter, I've got other means of correction/education at my disposal. No need for physical violence. That does NOT mean however, that I don't feel the urge to do so from time to time...

I do spank my gf when she asks me to though ;-)

I believe the OP was focused on the correctional/educational, not the recreational.
