    Canada still engages in this barbaric practice.

    Time to abolish the Canadian law that allows adults to spank and hit children

    Corporal punishment in the home

      The underlying problem (in the legal context) is that children are basically treated as property in much the same way that non-human animals are, just with some additional restrictions on the types of abuse that are allowed.

        Yup, both situations propagate violence in the world. Parents have too many rights and farm animals should never be called “livestock”
