When I was a kid I got a whipping from mom or a talking from dad.
I didn't mind the whipping so much as it was over pretty quick and I really never understood what it was all about. It seemed like it was more of an emotional release for her than punishment for me. But that talking from dad went on and on and on. By the time he was done, along with other carefully devised punishments, I understood exactly why I shouldn't do something again.
I think it is more the child as to what they will react to the best.
Along with the punishment do not forget the reward for behaving properly, or doing good.
