WH, most states permit (not sure about your provinces) corporal punishment as long as it is reasonable.Baseball bat to the thigh= abuse, smack upside the head= good parental judgement. |
There was a time it was like that here not anymore.
I can do it but risk of going to jail if my daughter should accuse me of abuse.
Very easy here to accuse someone and get a record without followup especially for guys. Laws favor local woman here.
But if that time would come and I was put into that situation I would give her and him a good wacking.  |
I agree with Wolfehunter here. All kids have to do today is cry abuse. Dad is on his way to lock up and pychogical help. Have a kid dial 911 like my brother-in-law did when he was a kid was all it took. Cops will come and you will be labelled. I'll be honest here. My daughter is a small kid. She is basically a year behind in growth as compared to other kids in her age. To help ease her mind my wife and I scheduled an appointment at John Hopkins here in Baltimore with a leading authority on child growth. During the visit, the doctor was looking for signs of abuse and malnutrition. She was looking for ribs showing, etc. All test were taken, blood, height, weight, etc. All test came back as a normal girl with typical hormon levels for her age and she is just a small person. Heck, my wife is 4 foot 6. We are not big people. My daughter was fine after the visit. I was aghast with the doctor looking for abuse. She thought I did not notice. My dad was a doctor and I read most of his books and new the method of operation in a possible abuse case. This doctor performed that method. You know, if the doctor determined my wife and I were starving our kid, our butts would be in the slammer.
