Well, I'd say there are several factors involved:
--Increasing gender equality
--Research that shows the detrimental effects of physical punishment
--Respect for psychological research
--Better educated parents
--The number of child abuse cases coming forth (that originated back in the day)
If you want to back up your original flippant remark, I'll be happy to back up the above factors.
