Should parents hit their children as a way to discipline the child?

Spare the rod and spoil the child is a popular saying in my place Nigeria. Hitting children plays an important role in discipline.

However hitting a child too much can lead to child abuse, it needs to be moderate at the same time is shouldn't be too much, there are times you spare the rod and have a heart to heart talk with them, but after constant corrections and they remain adamant, its nice to introduce the rods.

This is the way i was brought up, and most likely the way i will bring up my children.

There are just two ways to convince somebody of something: through reason or fear. Try reason first.
