[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 440195, member: 1550"] I am not sure about all states, but I believe a smack to a diapered bottom is fine and probably it would be dismissed by any social worker if it doesn't leave a mark. However, be careful about really hard smacks that leave marks, blows to the head and face, and try to look calm when you are spanking. If you look like an angry maniac you are more apt to get attention for it (also if you are cussing). I doubt one smack is going to make most reasonable folks pull out t he cell phone and call social services. But there are people who do believe in never spanking. in my opinion it's best done for the most extreme behaviors, such as safety issues, but I'd never turn anyone in for a reasonable one-time smack to the butt (with clothes on). If I saw anyone slapping a child on the face or yelling and looking dangerous or threatening, I probably would. And I work with school kids. If they have marks on them, we HAVE to call CPS. [/QUOTE]
