I have no problem with mild physical punishment, and I know I would not have said that before I had kids.
I haven't used it yet on our kids, but I would be lying if I said I hadn't been tempted to. I do tend to think of such action as violent, and counterproductive to the idea of modeling behavior that shows my kids that we can solve our problems with words and without resort to yelling or hitting, but there surely have been times when I want to give my son a firm whack on the butt to see if that will get my message across.
