[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thr Lancet just published an analysis of multiple studies in the subject:  https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)00582-1/fulltext

"The consistency of these findings indicates that physical punishment is harmful to children and that policy remedies are warranted."[/quote]

those are never controlled studies. they never account for context and application. [/quote]

I Eman if you're not going to listen to an analysis of.69 studies published in a top medical journal, you won't listen to anything.  Of course you can't have a double blind study on hitting kids, it's not ethical.

But it's a lot more reliable than thr anecdotes people weild.[/quote]

If you have a poorly designed study that makes no effort to control for type of corporal punishment, ages, demographic factors, child's pre-disposition, frequency of use, method of implementation, parental resources, behavior that causes it, and many other factors, then simply repeating the same basic correlational observation 69 times does not make it any more useful.

You clearly didn't bother to read the article.  This isn't a poorly conducted study.[/quote]
