Smacking Poll

Interesting to note in the Dom Post that 82% of parents say it is okay to smack a child and 60% oppose repeal of Section 59 – the effect of which would be to ban smacking.

I note the UN has a committee which claims a country isn’t serious about human rights if it allows any sort pf physical discipline of children.

I wonder of the UN includes as physical discipline having a father chop his daughter’s head off as an honour killing because he didn’t approve of her boyfriend?
