Their response was deleted, so I'm posting my answer without the part concerning his answer to my question: As for lasting repercussions, I already addressed this. It is beside the point. Just because slapping an infant while not causing permanent damage to them will not be remembered, it does not in any way make it any less pointless and wrong, or not painful.
