China rising: Is China changing business?

(CNN) – Before the turn of the century, it was considered a "no brainer" for U.S. businesses: you had to be in China.

Fast forward ten years and you have to ask the question, "has China been good or bad for America?" This week in our original series "China Rising," we're assessing China's economic impact on the United States.

Today on American Morning, Christine Romans examines how China has changed American businesses. One look at your dinner table will tell you everything you need to know.

To spank or not to spank?

A Tulane University study of nearly 2,500 kids found those who were spanked more at 3-years-old were 50 percent more likely to be defiant, have temper tantrums and hit other kids by 5-years-old.

Some say the evidence is stronger than ever against corporal punishment.

Today, the co-author of the study joins us to explain why spanking can lead to other problems as well.
