" A quick smack is a kinder and swift alternative consequence, bedded into the memory, to make sure they never do it again. You're not asking them to understand gravity or physics - they've had a smack and move on.
Incidentally my definition of a smack is with an open hand on the legs or bottom. If your own hand hurts you most likely hit too hard - that is your barometer."
SPOT ON. I would only add that a stern voice or look can do wonders also. Also...if you feel some remorse or guilt then you know you're doing it out of love and good of the child...sounds bizarre...but I find it true...because if I could do it without reciewing my feelings then I think I would have crossed the line.
