Should Smacking Children Be Illegal?

I agree Andy, also Discipline at home!

does that also apply to your misses too ?

i take all of you in favour also 'smacked' your kids ? and did your parents 'smack you'

i've got 2 kids and a stepkid, me or the misses have never needed to 'smack' them or give them a beating

well bully for you joe but in the real world most kids will play the game to see how far they can take you. you have been lucky in my opinion how you bring your kids up is only a part of the problem, the reason why our country is in a mess now is because of lack of discipline at home and at school. I don,t need or want anyone telling me how to bring my kids up after all the government can,t even run the country properly half the times and i,m supposed to listen on how to raise kids. I will say it again the reason our country is ....ed up is because of all the rules and regulations that have been brought in by various previous governments we did,nt have half the problems we have now because mommy stayed at home and dad brought in the money.

The biggest risk factor is not their behaviour, but their parents.'
