I believe most parents who do this intend to shock rather than hurt. I don't consider the times I've popped them in the mouth to be stellar parenting moments but equally so I don't consider them abusive.
Their dentist might disagree.
I'm getting the impression I must not slap or spank as hard as some on the forum because my children aren't at risk for any actual injury other than a sting. No dental issues from a pop on the mouth (aka slap on the cheek). If my slaps or spanks ever carried an actual risk of injury to my child, I absolutely would find a different method of correcting them.
