I have three children.
Spanked the eldest. They have a bunch of learning issues/autism and were a constant handful. Learned that there are many many choices that are more uncomfortable to a child without hitting/spanking.
Second was spanked less than 5 times
Third was never spanked.
We got much better with our parenting skills over time.
My kids are pretty darn awesome. We treated them as small humans with the ability to make good decisions. Mostly worked, except the eldest did some real dumb stuff.
