I assume whatever they based their results on Chas Send a noteboard - 04/09/2009 04:32:20 PM
Yes but this is something spread by the UN or unicef, rather. What better way to villify the US than to say we're horrible to our children? We all beat our kids and treat our pets like Michael Vick.


didn't really take into account the type of "violence":rolleyes:. So, therefore if they did a survey of Americans and asked them if they hit/spanked etc. their children that got marked as: 'beats the crap out their child- check.' And since that type of discipline is common the States got singled out as 'Child Abuse Central'.

I thought hitting children was legal in the US. *NM* Jonielle - 04/09/2009 06:11:37 AM 353 Views
Spanking your child is legal...there's a big difference between spanking your own kid and this. *NM* Brian - 04/09/2009 06:17:25 AM 450 Views
I find spanking just as big a abuse as this... The idea of raising a child with violence... *NM* Milla - 04/09/2009 08:32:08 AM 400 Views
Then you would have hated my home, cause I got spanked a lot growing up Brian - 04/09/2009 08:45:44 AM 557 Views
I've never been spanked... I will never spank my child. Milla - 04/09/2009 08:53:03 AM 574 Views

This isn't black and white. I was spanked as a child (with a hand) and I don't consider it abusive. *NM* Deadsy - 04/09/2009 02:51:26 PM 393 Views
