If the stupid parents that go as far as to beat their children that badly, then these laws aren't going to stop them at all. That kind of thing isn't the reasonable, discipline we're talking about, it's abusive parents. That's something quite different. Most parents are going to be reasonable with their children. It seems to me that Mudling here doesn't seem to understand that there's a difference between reasonable discipline and child abuse here. OddjobAbe has a point.
