A sad excuse for parenting, is enabling any kid with booze, before the legal drinking age.
(When an alcoholic parent pulls that mentality garbage at home, a kid is 6 more times likely to become an alcoholic just like their bad value plagued alcoholic parents?)
(The Alcoholic Corpral punishment technique?)
A sad excuse for parenting, are some of the drug addict moms and dads who use illegal drugs, around their own kids, or their own families.
(Could the legalization of medical marijuana, and recreational marijuana, be viewed, as co-creators, to a whole new probable generation, of marijuana addicts, just like some of the parent, or parents addicts already are?)
(The Marijuana addict, Corpral punishment technique?)
Is abortion outside of rape or incest, another probable example of, "bad value teaching?"
(Could abortion, against unborn babies, be viewed as a Corpral punishment technique?)

Maybe you misunderstood me.
Raising children in a criminal environment is apprehensable but it isn't considered child abuse in any laws that I am aware of. Child protection agencies are not able to remove children (or at least when I was working with children) from their homes just because they disagree with the morals the child is being taght. Not a opinion it is just a fact.

If people abuse dogs, by beating them, then they should be in jail.
If people are abusing kids by beating them, then they should be in jail as well.

To spank a child for being intolerant, is proper parenting.
To beat a child, outside of a spanking is child abuse.
Unless some parents, are scared to spank an intolerant child, and are in love with their intolerant child, attitudinally walking all over them?

****You don't know me to make such an accusation.
I don’t need to know you , you admit you beat children making you a child abuser.
You admit to beat a dog one should get jail time
You admit to beat a child one should get jail time , to spank a child is to beat a child
****I'm pro kid, pro family, and pro law abiding.
You’re certainly not “pro kid” you admit to beating children
****To spank a child for being intolerant, is proper parenting.
But you admitted parents who beat children deserve jail make your mind up
****To beat a child, outside of a spanking is child abuse.
Spanking is hitting, plain and simple. Think about it. Spanking involves a big, powerful person hitting a smaller, less powerful person. Just calling it "spanking" instead of "hitting" does not change that fact. Children are the only group of people whom it is legal for adults to hit in the US make you proud does it?
****Unless some parents, are scared to spank an intolerant child, and are in love with their intolerant child, attitudinally walking all over them?
Right so you’re that you cannot make your intent known to a child without beating him /her? Also you see it as an act of cowardice if one doesn’t beat a child
Why don’t you beat your dog when it disobeys you or your wife for “attitude adjustment “ or your neighbour if you don’t like his/her attitude?

You're entitled to your Opinion, and perception.
I don't have to justify myself to another anonymous name on the internet.
Spanking a child, isn't abuse.
And you can engineer your words, around me however you want, but that doesn't make your word just, because you're crafting your word choices on the internet.
If some parents, are happy with letting their attitude filled kids, or intolerant kids, walk all over them, then it's those parents fault, for allowing those kids to become problems for the rest of the Public, to deal with.
Chasing illegal drugs, chasing alcohol, chasing jail time.

You're a United Kingdom citizen aren't you, therefore your opinion or perception, when it comes to the "spanking of a child, and not the beating" of a child, for being intolerant, is irrelevant to the laws of the United States, isn't it?
Just as I wouldn't make a judgement of the laws in the United Kingdom, because I'm a U.S. citizen.
"Anyway, I take it you're one of the people that would also concur then that was once considered corporal punishment is now child abuse."
"I know that definitely is the case now in England, especially in schools which seemed to be far more notorious and famous for hard physical punishment."

"Campaign for Children and Families (CCF), which has fought against bills proposed in California and Massachusetts last year that would have made it illegal for parents to administer corporal punishment on their children. As far as they are concerned, it's the government that should keep its "hands off" of parental discipline.
"Some parents spank and some parents don't, and that's their right as parents. Government regulation of parents' discipline wipes out the right of parents to raise their own children. This is wrong. God gave children to parents, not to the state," CCF President Randy Thomasson said in a statement refuting the Massachusetts legislation.
Spanking is appropriate when administered to kids between ages 2 and 10 as "the shortest and most effective route to an attitude adjustment," Thomasson said. It is inappropriate for children under 15 or 18 months, however, "because they don't understand it."
"Appropriate spanking is not 'beating' or 'abusing' a child, which is a ridiculous and offensive comparison," Thomasson said. "When appropriate spanking is lovingly administered, it greatly helps a disobedient youngster to become a well-adjusted adult who respects authority."
But even he acknowledged that the line between a loving parent and an abusive one can sometimes blur -- and an angry parent may not be able to distinguish between a beating that can cause temporary pain, and one that can bruise, cut or break bones.
This is precisely where laws that address child abuse are deficient: They do not clearly define the severity of a beating or the type of specific actions that constitute abuse.
"It's going to be seen differently depending on whose eyes are looking at it..." Riak said. "If you are looking for a hard line that says if you do this you should be arrested and prosecuted, that's not going to happen."
