There is pressure within the UK to outlaw spanking. Do you think this a step to far? Why or why not?
Link...

In my opinion, the practice is about as archiac as hitting your wife to keep her in line, except women had a liberation movement. Children have not been so lucky.

Spanking teaches children that the way to deal with problems is to use violence, so for me, no, it is not going to far. Any parent that needs to resort to violence to discipline a child is not in control of their actions and is not raising their child well at all.

I just fear the ability of this law to be enforced fairly without government agencies meddling too far into parenting regulations...
