Yes, I think so. Most parents from Archie and Edith's generation spanked their kids. I think even Edith would have supported it if Gloria had done something bad enough. I think both Archie and Edith probably gave Gloria an occasional, mild spanking. Neither would have been brutal. It would have been just enough to teach a lesson. For instance, I can see them spanking her if she had run into the street or something else dangerous. I think Gloria got spankings, but they were rare.
