I strongly disagree with that... omg, have you seen how some of these kids act in public? They need a level of fear in them that you will get them at any time... or they're going to act out when they can.
Now, that's not ALL kids, but you have to deal with bad ass kids to understand. You need to set boundaries, and a 2-4 year old is not going to understand reasoning..
(-EDIT- my little sister and brother, for example.. were raised under the same circumstances.. and she just happened to stay quiet/shy and good, while my brother would ALWAYS test his boundaries. Different kids need different treatment. Just the thought that someone feels upset with my sister at 3 was enough to make her sad and start acting right... my brother could give to fwords about how others felt, and would keep pushing and pushing until he got punished.)
And I know plenty of people who physically punish their dogs when they're puppies. For example... it's a common thing here for if a dog pisses on the floor in the house, to rub their face in the piss then kick them out of the house for a few days.. as a part of training.
