They are not suggesting that the parent should smack the child later at home rather than there and then. What they are saying is that a child should not be smacked at all and that anyone seen doing so in public should be dealt with.

Apparently we should be able to reprimand our children without resorting to smacking.

I was once accused of child abuse on this forum when I admitted to having smacked my children when they were naughty and too young to understand a reasoned argument.
