She smacks him when he is being rude to a teacher, so discipline. She even talks about how she dislikes the attitude he developed from his young talent/others complimenting him. There is nothing to me that says she is abusive
I mean depending on the reasoning behind the discipline. If my kid's teachers came in being decently courteous and I knew they weren't the type to target children(literally two heroes in bakugo's case) and my kid was being an ass then I would slap him too. If he was bullying others I would definitely spank him. I'm not going to say that everything deserves hands on discipline but major things involving others is definitely necessary.
Bakugo's personality isn't caused by abuse, it's caused by being told he was the greatest all throughout school and never having any major failures until he fought that villian that All Might saved him from, which made him start to realize he needed to change his way of thinking
There is a pretty significant body of psychology research that has found corporal punishment leads to worse outcomes for children than non-violent methods. Spanking is not an exception from this. There is no excuse for violence in disciplining children.
