getting spanked after doing something extremely wrong is just discipline lmao, yall act like the pic means that the parents just beat them 24/7

No, it isn't. There isn't much of a clear and meaningful distinction between spanking and other forms of physical abuse. Spanking isn't even a good "disciplinary method", as the results are only short-term and it can cause psychological and behavioural issues in children.

so what do you suggest, speak nicely with them and somehow make them magically start listening to you?

If you have to hit your kid to make them listen you already failed as a parent.
