The advantage of physical punishment is that it is very convincing; if you wish to inspire fear, this will do it. The disadvantages are that it is also emotionally scarring and may lead to life-long resentment or hatred, and in addition, it could lead to charges of child abuse if children are the object of your punishment, or charges of assault in the case of adults, if the punishment is too severe. Also charges of murder, if the punishment proves to be fatal. The events at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, under the Bush administration, are a cautionary tale.
