It’s actually battery.

it’s called discipline and these children need it

It's called abuse. And it creates bullies. It solves nothing.

it’s not abuse. as long as you don’t draw blood or leave marks on the child’s skin it’s perfectly fine to discipline your own child.

To strike another person with their hands or an object is criminal assault . I was raised by a mother who struck me every chance that she had. As a very young child, I often hid in a doghouse to keep out of her sight. I have no fond memories of her. Children should not be beaten.

Agreed. There's a certain trust you never get back after someone hits you.

And there’s a HUGE difference between a “paddling” or “swats” and a beating or assault! Let’s be realistic!

That’s what parents are for start holding parents accountable.

Yes ma'am you are correct. I remember when parents, teachers and the whole Community were United and worked together as a whole for the sake of every child.

Yes ma'am. I see it every day. Enabling doesn't help children. It only makes for a grim future.
