My daughter, who is about to turn seven, hits me. She gets upset when she doesn't get her way, and she wallops me, hoping I'll let her buy that Toca Boca mansion.
After she wound me up the other day. I gave her a big smack back. And I hit her hand instead of her bum, and it hurt her; no real damage, but she was in tears. I don't generally hit her; it's not a common occurrence. I have smacked her bum, not to discipline her, but out of sheer frustration; it's a knee-jerk response. I certainly don't flog her, but sometimes when she riles me up and I want her to stop, the thought goes through my head to give it back, so she knows not to mess with me. After I hurt her hand the other day, I told her I'm a lot bigger than her, and I could hurt her if I lose my temper. I'm a calm, non-violent guy, but every now and again she screams and hits me, and I want to smack her. Generally, I think better of it, but I wish she were a little scared of my wrath so she doesn't poke the bear. She's under the delusion that we are equally matched, and if I fight back, she'll give me more of the same, little shit.
