Hslda.org good resource for Canada spanking law change
The majority of the public polled by Canadian researchers support reasonable
punishment for children. However, as http://www.hslda.org points out, a small group seems determined to change the law in Canada, so as to make corporal punishment by parents illegal. If you wish further information on this subject: Call 866-338-8614 |

Hslda.org good resource for Canada spanking law change
Apparently there are people who feel that physically assaulting children by
raising one's hand, with or without an implement and striking the body of a little child is well beyond the limits of what could be considered "reasonable punishment." After all, this is considered "cruel and unusual punishment" for adults, and it is illegal. Why would someone think it is reasonable to physically assault children in the name of discipline? Obviously there are people that think this way, though. It's hard to imagine, isn't it? Maybe we should be questioning the "reasonable" thinking and behavior of adults who feel that physically hitting and hurting little children is reasonable.

LaVonne Is it "reasonable" to assume that someone who claimed to have a Ph.D. to know the difference between spanking and CP that was done to prisoners??? Anti-spanking zealotS and logic..... ;-) Doan |
