Slate is a tabloid.  You may as well quote from the National Inquirer.  No wait, that rag has a better reputation. But at least it isn't the Huffington Compost.

I never received a crack on the ass that wasn't deserved. My views come from first hand knowledge and experience as usual. Knowing the result it had with me, I consider it to be a positive thing as far as my life is concerned.

In my personal experience spanking is not effective. Not saying I never was spanked without deserving it, but it simply wasn't effective. For me my currency was the radio and my music collection. Taking that away was far more effective than anything else.

That being said, research indicates that corporeal punishment works poorly and lowers the child's IQ and as such should be used as a last resort if used at all.
