[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 656381, member: 4386"] There are a number of legal firms confirming on-line that it is not an offence, such as the one quoted. There was a trial case and conviction but it was thrown out on appeal. And of course the issue is severity - normal laws of assault also apply to children, but normal smacking is not classed as assault in Australia. A slight slap sounds appropriate for a kid only 19 months old - that is a very small kid. We found that at that age the "naughty corner" was probably more effective. [/QUOTE]
