Is spanking bad for children?

Spanking is not injurious to a child, however it does depend on the severity, frequency and the appropriateness of its application. Spanking does not convey knowledge, but it allows a child to correlate bad behaviour with bad consequences. It is an unthinking person's approach to behavioural or moral sanctioning.
