chosen: It is never acceptable to spank a child excessively. The American Academy of Pediatrics advises that parents find other methods of discipline, such as time-out, than spanking. When spanking is used as a form of discipline, it should always be done in moderation and with caution so that it does not look like abuse. Parents should consider a light smack on the bottom rather than a hard swat. Additionally, it is advisable to always speak calmly to the child and remain firm and consistent with the boundaries and rules.
