it's always crazy to me that literally every expert and study says not to do it and a bunch of fucks think they know more

It's crazy to me that there has never been a scientific study done in which parents properly explain the reason they are spanking a child when they do it, yet people like you automatically dismiss all forms of spanking as abusive and claim that it has been scientifically proven without a shred of evidence to back up that claim.

I respect what you're saying but your argument is very similar to the one people use to defend communism. Ie 'the idea is right but the implementation is wrong etc.' The problem is that the vast majority of parents who spank their kids don't do so constructively and responsibly and if they did, this could be assumed in the scientific studies and it still wouldn't support spanking.
