I think spankings are needed when children are at a young age, pops on the butt at age 2 to some whoops around age 5. When a mind can't reason why something is bad, minor pain brings understanding with the word no.....like, don't stick your finger in a outlet.
I spanked my son maybe twice before age 8. A stern talking usually made him fall into tears. My daughter, you could spank her and she would look at you like...that didn't hurt, grounding her worked much better.
