Hell no I wouldn't backhand my kid for spitting on me. I'd ground them or take away something meaningful from them. I'm intelligent enough to restrain myself from smacking around a small child.

There are some very creative ways to get a point across to a child without using violence. Some people are just too stupid and lazy to be an upstanding parent who can outsmart their own children, so they take the bonehead approach to discipline and just hit them.

No wonder some kids are so ****ed up. Oh wait, that's not very PC.

Oh, and if a man or woman spit on me then I would verbally tear them a new asshole and never interact with them again. Who wants to hang around with animals like that, unless of course you're as sick and low in life as they are.
This is your child spitting on you, it is up to you how you educate and discipline your child spitting on you.
However you have to accept the fact, that your child, because you failed to discipline it for spitting on you, it will most likely try to spit on other children, too and you should not be surprised, if these children will spit back or beat up your child in return.
Do not blame the other children or even adults for their behaviour, if they do not act in the way you do. To call these children and adults stupid or lazy because of your own incapability to discipline your child with strict punishment when necessary is the wrong way.

Yes, there are some creative ways, but they work not always.
So, what to do, when it does not work out as expected?
How old is for you a child?
A 14-years old boy will not accept grounding, he will call you an idiot (and he is right, because you failed to teach him good manners, when he was still a small child).

Yes, ****ed up children, because they never heard a clear 'NO' and parents running on the non-spanking idea are totally unable to control them.
To blame are here the parents, not the children.

You do not want to interact with such violent people, the problem is however, they want to interact with you - and will not ask for your permission. So again, what to do?
