- Laws must be changed to ensure smacking a child is not seen as acceptable in any circumstances, paediatricians have urged.
The current law in England and Northern Ireland has created “grey areas” which mean there is sometimes a defence to physical punishment, the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) said.
Wales made any type of corporal punishment, including smacking, hitting, slapping and shaking illegal in March 2022, while Scotland had already introduced a similar ban in November 2020.
The RCPCH said amendments to the Children Act 2004 for England and the Law Reform Order 2006 for Northern Ireland “to remove the ‘reasonable punishment’ defence from all UK law are long overdue”.
Its report on the issue argued that, ahead of a general election, this was a time for all political parties to “make meaningful commitments on this important children’s rights issue”.
Professor Andrew Rowland, a consultant paediatrician and RCPCH officer for child protection, said: “The laws around physical punishment as they stand are unjust and dangerously vague.”
JJ Anisiobi says “a gentle smack to discipline your child is absolutely permitted” and urges the Government to “stay out of it.”

Letting children think their are no consequences to bad and dangerous behaviour and letting some of the so-called experts make excuses for those behaviours leaves you with a knackered society like ours.
I and my three siblings were smacked as children and we all turned out to be upstanding citizens of society.
This is like saying 'my grandma smoked all her life and never got cancer'... It's just a deliberate way to dismiss the fact that plenty of people do.
Are these the same doctors you can't even get an appointment to see. Glad they got time for this.
The government has no business interfering in so many aspects of our lives - it should focus on its actual job. Border security, defence, road maintenance, bin collecting etc
And what happens now Is a kid will attack their parents or some cases kill as we have seen in America so what does that parents do in that situation?
Because if that kid has no respect for their parents they will have no respect for no one else!
Literally thought it was illegal 😮
First smoking ban, then Sunak is chattering about pubs and drinking and now this. If I wanted to live in China I'd friggin move there, I do not expect the govt to run MY LIFE for me.
If you would like a preview of what government parenting is like.
Just look at the care system, and the huge amount of damaged people they produce!
All the reason not to have kids
yep sick of all the so called experts that think we need telling and the shows where so called celebs are on with their children look at me ones GET ON WITH YOUR OWN KIDS AND STOP THE NONSENSE THAT IS GOING ON
Rubbish I was slapped I dont have a criminal record and I've worked for 33 years
Maybe social services should do their jobs and take children in abusive homes where abuse is evident there is a difference between a slap and beating a child up
Kids didn't do half the stuff they do now when I was a kid because there was discipline in homes there wasn't interference in homes like there is now parents are told by the government how to raise their kids and that is wrong
Its all about control
DONT HAVE KIDS IN UK OR EUROPE OR USA NO POINT
What medical justification does this proposal have?
A slap in the hand is not going to cause any real injury.
It won’t causes any medium or long term medical issues.
Every animal in nature that can physically discipline their offspring.
DO physically discipline their children.
Humans are no different!
Of course it's different. Animals act on instincts and survival. Humans have the capacity to think rationally and make a considered, reasonable decision whether or not to strike their children. A slap will not cause long term physical injury, no... But it does suggest to a child that violence is an effective way to control behavior and they could very well use that lesson for how they deal with others. Not only that, but once a parent gets the result they want by using physical violence, they can end up getting used to it and making it a first resort simply because it works.
The fact remains, they keep saying 'its just a tap on the bum' which is deliberately underplaying what this is, it's using pain and/or fear to control the behavior of a child. If you do that to any other person, it's considered physical abuse or domestic violence.... But if you do it to a child who is clearly helpless compared to an adult, somehow people think that's perfectly fine. Simply put, it's the normalization of hitting children.
Do you really believe that a gentle smack is going to stop the ‘whining’ you described in your opening comments?
“The disciples came to Jesus and asked, ‘Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven?’
He called a child, set him in front of them, and said, ‘I tell you this: unless you turn round and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of Heaven.
Let a man humble himself till he is like this child, and he will be the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven. Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me. But if a man is a cause of stumbling to one of these little ones who have faith in me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea.
Alas for the world that such causes of stumbling arise! Come they must, but woe betide the man through whom they come!’” - (at Matthew 18: 1-7) -
Jesus is talking about not abusing children here, disciplining them is something entirely different! Jesus is in favour of discipline, I should know he’s had to discipline me (His child) quite a few times!

You are mistaken! You should not smack your child, but show love for your child. We learn from Jesus that we must discipline ourselves. We must therefore control ourselves.
He is not the Father, but is sent by God our true Father in heaven. We are brothers and sisters of Jesus, so we must love one another just as he loves us.
These are the words of the Lord God: “I will raise up for them a prophet like you [Moses] from among their fellow Israelites, and I will put my words in his mouth.” - (at Deuteronomy 18: 18) -
“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign: A young woman is with child, and she will bear a son, and will call him Immanuel.” [“God is with us”] - (Isaiah 7: 14) -
“In truth I tell you, anyone who gives heed to what I say and puts his trust in him who sent me, has hold of eternal life and does not come up for judgement, but has already passed from death to life.” - (The Prophet and Messiah Jesus [Immanuel] of Nazareth at John 5: 24) -
“The teaching that I give is not my own; it is the teaching of him who sent me. Whoever has the will to do the will of God shall know whether my teaching comes from him or is merely my own.” - (at John 7: 16-17) -
You are misquoting the scriptures
A kid is a young goat and not a human child.
BIT OF A LONG POST I live in wales and this Happened to my partner last summer my 5 yr old told her teacher her dad smacked her and social services turned up at my house and made my partner leave our house for a minimum of 2 weeks for them to investigate the allegations…FROM A 5 YEAR OLD KID. They then ignored every phone call off him asking when he could come back and only answered after he left a voicemail telling them it’s been 14 days I haven’t heard anything off you so I’m going home. Turns out the “smack” off her dad was because she was holding our brand new 9 week old kitten by his neck and wouldn’t let go so he tapped her hand to stop her, which they still weren’t happy about. Then they got nasty with me because my 5 yr old apparently overheard my 9 year old daughter telling me when she stayed over her dads last week he got angry with her and strangled her. My 9 yr old literally said it out the blue to me in front of my 5 yr old and social services were absolutely disgusted that my 5 ye old head it…not that a 9 yr old got choked by her dad, 3:01 they were more concerned that a 5 yr old heard it. They want me to take her to therapy for overhearing it. HAHAHAH they are an absolute joke. I started ignoring there calls and they’ve seen to have got bored and left us alone for about a year now. I was told they try and stick to any family they get involved with as long as possible because if there is no cases, there is no work and no work=no jobs for them. Morons
