[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 483204, member: 11791"] First - let me say that I'm not a fan of physical punishment as a form of discipline. I'm NOT taking that side of the argument at all. But, its tricky to intervene - either as an individual, or for a government-type agency (ngo or whatever). Some countries have nailed down their child abuse laws so tightly that many parents have given up on ALL forms of discipline, for fear of tripping over the draconian laws... and a child raised without discipline (notice, I said discipline, not punishment...) is just abused in a different way. The balance between greater public good and individual rights, priveleges and responsibilities... is a very fine line. Like so many problems, there MAY be some answers... but maybe not. If it were really simple, somebody would have done it by now (well, ok, maybe not always). [/QUOTE]
