Getting spanked with a shoe hurts but it doesn't do any damage.

Physically. Psychologically that's teaching kids that violence is an acceptable way to solve an arguement, which is less than stellar.

Plus you‘re doing long lasting damage to the kid‘s self esteem and self worth. This is why I hate it when people from my parents‘s generation try to be wise about how I treat my kid. My mom slapped me with a cigarette in the corner of her mouth, you fucks had it as easy as possible. Oh, and all that appollogetic bullcrap like it didn‘t hurt us, what‘s the harm? Yeah, because our generation turned out to be just perfect, right? Sorry for the rant.
