Shemos Rabbah (Shemos parsha 1) and a gemara in Makos (8a) both seem to indicate that physically striking a child/student is a positive thing to do in terms of discipline/education.
My question is: what are the opinions of Rabbis writing from about 1950 until now on this subject?
(I am interested in recent opinions since they would reflect a position based on modern society [assuming that a halachic decision would include such a consideration])
