Using your hand and nothing else, you should only go as far as doesn't leave a mark or a bruise on the kid's butt. If you go further, it is abuse and you could get into some real trouble, even losing custody of the kid. I would also say that if your hand is hurting afterwards, you are either hitting too hard, or too many times.
Don't believe the kid if he/she is saying it doesn't hurt either and then you whack more. If your hand is bruising the butt or your hand hurts, I can guarantee that the butt is hurting, even if there are no tears lost.
Better than thinking "How many whacks can I do" why don't you think it out and see if whacking will really accomplish what you want it to do. If taking away the TV, toys or other privileges will do, avoid doing the whacking.
If you need further help, go to www.focusonyourchild.com and see what they have to say. They can give you many ideas on how to discipline your kid besides whacking.

well a lot people say there is never a excuse to hit another person however you heard the saying its going to hurt me as imuch as it going to hurt you however if you from the old school as iam from old school and my parents didn,t play and i survive and came out ok how may you give a spanking it depends on the child, some children all you have to do is raise your voice and other kids you have to just show them you mean business you can disc. your child without abusing them and they can learn from the way you handle them.

"whacks"???? None.
That does not include disciplinary action suitable for the punishment, such as mild spanking and hand spanks when used in conjunction with other forms of discipline such as time outs and taking away priveledges.

Um...ZERO...it's child abuse and only makes them distrust and hate you. When I would get frustrated I always remember what my Dad told me..."Are you being outsmarted by a 4 year old?" Use your brain not your fists to discipline your kids.

not whacks - you should probably use a bull whip, from a distance of about 15 feet - that should give it sufficient force.
No more than 35. Yeah - no more than 35 any time.

Personally I don't believe in spanking. I always made mine exercise until I got tired. (It also wore them out! An added bonus!!) But if spanking is for you, then I'd say 3 max. But no bruising!!

lizzie borden took an axe
and gave her father 40 whacks
when she saw what she had done,
she gave her mother 41.
Moral...don't dish out corporal punishment...it screws kids up for life!
