        Good. Hitting a child just means you are so intellectually inferior that when you lose an argument or discussion to a child your last resort is violence.

        Gee. So you mean if you physically demonstrate to children that violence is an acceptable problem solving solution, they later resort to it themselves? Who could have possibly seen that coming.

        It's a relief that parents in the U.S. are free to physically strike their children as long as they describe the child abuse euphemistically as "spanking".

        A country should not have to ban something that should NEVER be done in the first place

        People are so blind and can see that this is all about government control. You may laugh but why would u want more government control because they know better than you ? Soon you will be required to turn your children over to the government to raise. It will be over before u know

        Even the military has known for decades that people don’t learn behavior modification from corporal punishment.

        Did the study look at how many entitled snowflakes who cannot deal with real-world realities it created?
