Animals are what they are, some people believe they have "feelings" etc. like human beings do. If you need to move animals, you have to herd them, and maybe push them around (this is what I meant in my oriiginal post when I said physical discipline was "for animals", I was'nt talking about abusing them). My point really is that consideration for a child's ability to rationalise should be foremost in dealing with them when it comes to behavioural issues. Animal behaviour is different, and their ability to "rationalise" is marginal, so you have to be physical with them to make them do things. Cowboys don't ask a cow to move across a stream, they herd them. That is physical discipline, and (imo) that is o.k. for animals. Hope I have made myself clear.
