The guy is partially right, though. Spanking isnt abusive..... We never spanked our kids but it wouldnt be regarded as abusive if we did. There is a fringe group out there called "no spank" or"Nonspank" which believes that spanking is abusive or some such nonsense, but you are always going to see groups like this pop up to take an unpopular stance. I also dont think someone should spank another persons kid without permission, if that was the original issue.

It should be noted, child torturer, that we're not discussing spanking "children". We’re discussing "spanking" young men and women- adolescents. As an adolescent, for the most part, people have reached their intellectual (though not psychological,) maturity. "Spanking" a teen, therefore, has the same meaning, emotionally, and mentally, as "spanking" you.
Spanking kids is justified by the idea that because kids are pre-verbal, the only way to get them to grasp a concept is hitting them. Adolescents are obviously not pre-verbal, and such justification is no longer rational. Why don’t we just start spanking factory workers and office employees while we’re at it. So fucking gross
Not surprising though, that a pro child torturer, like the who, calls a group dedicated to ending the beating of children a "fringe group"
