I belive that a spank or slap is in order if the child doesn't get it through their head that what they are doing s wrong. My little sister got a slap, not too bad though, after throwing a tantrum.
But I have seen child abuse personally. I was at my friend's house, when my friend talked to his mom. I heard arguing, then he went back into the room. He kept arguing with her, until she got so mad that she took the baby's mini-car and threw it at him. It must have hurt alot since my frined began to cry. His mom just said that he was asking for it, and he took him up to his room.
It's hard to describe what it felt like to me....the best I could describe it was sickening. Child abuse is definetly a problem, and could get out of hand.
