Many parents on the conservative right of politics worry about me banning spanking, due to my strongly held anti-spanking trauma. I am anti-spanking and don't shut up one bit about it. But, I don't think a ban under the civil laws would work at this time.
The idea is opinion change, which is how children's rights works, meaning uplifting the Law. God's Law states that spanking is banned as a form of offense against the child in Col. 3:21. The idea is to show everyone that God's Law already prohibits spanking and corporal punishment when understood to the context that it was written to, so that we know what our true values are. The most influential forces for social change for minorities was religious leadership correcting the religious bigots on their theology, not denying the existence of God altogether.
The law is constantly evolving in regard to the issue of corporal punishment of children, as well as other forms of punishment. There are increasingly stricter definitions of physical abuse in Pennsylvania, with it now being illegal to strike an infant. It is only a matter of time before spanking is banned here.
Here in Pennsylvania, about 50% of the population is for spanking, and 50% of the population is against it, and here in Berks County, you almost never see a child punished in public. The abusive incidents consist of emotional abuse within the law, meaning shouting at children with intent to control the situation, meaning entitlement. Abuse is when it is perceived by the child.
My ideal setup is where whatever the child perceives as offensive or uncomfortable objectively is, meaning the slightest of personal offense perceived by a child, coming from entitlement, in reverse coloration format. The law, for domestic violence between spouses or partners, is reliant on the perception of the victim partner/spouse, and the intent of the suspect. The same should be the case with child victims of domestic violence.
Let the depraved and entitled parents BURN in the lake of fire and burning sulfur! Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!
