True, but a paddling by Daddy Peterson may not be a good thing for a four-year-old.

If you trust in scientific research, corporal punishment does more harm than good.

If you are suspicious of the experts, and you think spanking can do some good, well, the law lets you whack away to a point. The problem is, it takes a lot of self-control that you may lack. People who got beat by their own parents seem to lack that control.
