A Potch has nothing to do with hurt. It is a physical message. The message goes over well enough when it is a simple tap on the hand. Most of the effect is the threat and lead up. That can be applied to other things as well. You can threaten them that if they continue to do whatever then you’ll actually be upset.
A brother of mine, who raised his whole family to love each other, had to once admonish his daughter. All he said was that he was surprised she behaived that way and she cried bitterly. The extremes are what you make them to be.
Yes you, obviously.
