Spanking is part of a discipline practice called corporal punishment (CP).
CP is defined as the use of physical force with the intention of causing pain but not injury for the purpose of correction or control.
More than half of the people in the U.S. believe that spanking is an effective form of discipline for their children. This site was designed to show the actual effects of spanking and to give a brief history of why we spank.
