This stuff about "counselling" and "debriefing" after a smacking creeps me out. I'd think the last person some poor kid needs counselling them is a person who thinks it's OK to smack kids.
I sort of understand a parent losing it in certain life-threatening situations, though. But that's not punishment in the way we're talking about; that's more a bad reaction because of fear and shock and whatnot.
