If you do spank your child do not leave bruises or marks on them it could be considered child abuse don't make them pull their pants down . I wouldn't spank them in public either wait till you get home. only use your hand don't use belts or ect. objects. only use spanking as a last resort .

If you're going to spank, which is highly frowned upon by most people, be aware that you should not leave bruising, as you would then be in violation of many child abuse laws. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. YOU'RE PUNISHING YOUR CHILD, NOT BEATING THEM.

Spanking a child, most often, is done in a seated position with the child bent over your lap. As spanking is now a much frowned upon and punishable act, never under any circumstances use anything other than your hand to spank a child. Do not use excessive force, you're just trying to let them know they've crossed a line. Three times is sufficient and they should never be forced to remove pants or pull up skirts, etc.

Immediately after spanking your child, send them to their room, or somewhere free of distractions, and let them cry, as they will most assuredly cry. When they have calmed down and you have calmed down, too, it's important to "make up" with your child, talk about their transgression so they understand why they were punished and then do something nice together.

It's important to note that if you're going to use spanking as a disciplinary tool in your home that you must use it scarcely and only for the most awful of behavior. Overuse is not only unproductive, but can be construde as child abuse, which is taken very seriously across the board of "people that will take away your child faster than you can blink."

Do not spank. Bad idea. Use other disciplinary actions. Such as time out, taking away toys, using your words.

Spanking is a discipline of last resort. Psychologists have found that spanking does little to correct behavior, only makes children fearful to come to a parent or guardian when something is wrong or they have done something wrong.

A smack or two on a child's behind is okay to get the child's attention. A prolonged spanking is not only wrong it can be considered child abuse if it is to prolonged and you leave bruises on their behind. The only acceptable implement is you hand, anything else can be considered child abuse.

The fact that you are asking a question like this says you were never spanked as a child. So I have to ask why do you feel it is acceptable for you to spank your child or a child you may be guardian too?

I would not recommend spanking as a disciplinary measure because the child might grow up to be someone who only follows rules out of fear. Instead of spanking, maybe you could just ban things like playtime and candies until he learns to behave.
