Physical discipline against children .. okay or not? (country, effects, member)

Regarding the studies you posted, how many other factors did they investigate? Because I think that corporal punishment would be much more common in homes of a lower socio-economic status, a situation that already skews the child's development slightly towards the results of the study.

There are so many variables in the statistics that I kinda feel like it would be a case of over regulation to make laws based off that evidence.
