Now that the Fresh Prince and Chris Rock have sort of finished their go round.
Let me start with this: I do not believe in child abuse! But, I do believe in Corporal Punishment.
My opinion only: If you want to say bad things about my wife in public, you can expect my response to be: Rapid, Fierce, and Public!
Now about slapping. My dad was a child of in the Depression. Things were different than NOW. But as I grew up, when I crossed a line, THE LINE or any line. I got one swift slap across the face! Depending on directionality it could be backhand or a palm slap. This taught me to stop talking when told! To stop fleeing when told, and never never ever talk disrespectfully about any female human! I learned these lessons well before 5th grade!
When my wife and I started having children, I purposed in my heart to never slap my kids! (the oldest is now 44, and I never have!) My oldest was about 14 and sassed his mother when I wasn't there. The kindest, most wonderful mom in the world palm slapped his face so fast, the whole neighborhood learned that lesson! Nobody stood up to the plate for a second inning!
My children are late 30's to mid 40's. And the grandkids are 3 months to 16 years old. They answer when spoken to, they say "Yes Mamam" or No Sir". They have yet to be shot at (except while in combat zones) and only one minor arrest without incident. (Don't throw firecrackers at passing cars in Ohio!)
So, I'm guessing, but Chris Rock never got smacked for his foul mouth growing up! And I bet he is a little more circumspect about how he talks about women when their husband is in earshot! (because 'Within arm's reach, can change in an instant!) And maybe all of society will be just a little less foul mouthed.
Wheather, you agree or disagree I welcome comment.

Chris Rock has built a career that absolutely puts him in the arena of the ALL TIME legends in his career field and his foul mouth is a huge part of that.
