Don't slap your daughters!

They could accuse you of domestic violence:

"A man who was arrested and cautioned for slapping his 13-year-old daughter across the face fears he will no longer be able to work with children."
Now, my Dad smacked me when I was little (younger than 13), but only on the legs or hands (my brother would get a whack round the ear) and I don't think it did me any harm. But a slap round the face, to me, is a lot worse. A smack on the legs is punishment, a clip round the head is a "wake-up call" (to quote my favourite American show), but a slap in the face is a humiliation.
Just wondering what anyone else thinks?
PS) I also think the girl is bloody stupid for not realising her own actions might have consequences).
PPS) Apologies if this is a repost.
