[John-U]

It is tragic that lawmakers have reacted to child abuse by invoking another kind of child abuse – no spanking. Until a child reaches the age of understanding, education applied to the seat of understanding is effective, if the purpose is to discpline the child. I live in Alberta. However, in Ontario, it is my understanding that parents can be disciplined for PUBLICLY spanking a child. In all fairness, even before the law was there, disciplining a child in public is humiliating. It is best done privately behind closed doors. The law is meant for the betterment of society, but sometimes lawmakers get carried away and make a bad situation worse by passing short-sighted laws.
