I have to disagree with you. In this child's 6-year-old mind, he was doing something because of what he heard (or thought he heard) the parents say. The child said on live television that he hid because his parents "said it was for the show". He was trying to do as he believed his parents wanted.
What good will beating, whipping or hitting a little kid (who did what he thought his parents wanted him to do) accomplish?
This isn't a pro/con of corporal punishment (I'm not here to debate), but a question as to what good hitting a child when he did what he thought his parents wanted him to do.
