And let's not pretend that some kids aren't just flat out stubborn and rebellious, regardless.

I don't disagree at all.

I had this friend who told his kid over and over to stay out of the ****ing street. Over and over. He tried all the other things. The last time she did it was the ONLY TIME he's spanked her, and he told her before 'next time you do that I"m going to whip your butt."

She never tried that shit again.

Life is messy. There is no 'always correct' way to do anything that involves human interaction, but there are things that are always wrong. Like switching a 4 year old until his scrotum is bleeding.
