"Corporal Punishment," what a lovely, soft language term to legitimize literally terrorizing children through violence.

Sorry, I disagree. Violence is violence.

How do you teach someone empathy without putting them through what they do to others?

My daughter used to bite people. We tried everything to get her to stop. One day she bit my leg hard. So I yoinked her lil ass up and bit her back.

She never bit anyone again.

I still feel bad about it because I reacted with anger. But the lesson was learned. Permanently.
