Hitting is striking someone (usually puching or kicking them) with the intention to cause pain and possible injury, so yes I would agree they should be in serious trouble. However, slapping a wilfully naughty child does not come under that defintion Punch - Hit with a closed fist. Kick - Hit with a foot. Slap - Hit with an open palm. Quote and it doesn't even hurt them that much. ... It clearly does. But at least you acknowledge that the intention is to cause pain, because otherwise what would be the point of hitting a child as a form of punishment?

From your other posts I can't imagine that you feel any great solidarity with gender-critical feminists, so what's your reasoning for your objections to the 'trans agenda'?

Hitting anyone is wrong. Hitting a kid, who can’t hit you back is cowardly, reprehensible, bullying and completely unnecessary. It is not me who is incorrectly defining the English language, it is you : hitting 1. bring one's hand or a tool or weapon into contact with (someone or something) quickly and forcefully. Now that we have proved my use of language is correct and yours is wrong, why don't you stop trolling ? >>Hitting anyone is wrong. Hitting a kid, who can’t hit you back is cowardly, reprehensible, bullying and completely unnecessary.<< We have already established that your use of the word hitting is incorrect. But, with all due respect, your definition of what is "necessary" is not one I would agree with on almost any subject, like banning parents from videoing their own kids racing, or, of course, your mate Mike, who, I understand, you agree with ? : (June 2021) Mike Buckley : broadcaster and Labour activist : All secondary school pupils [all 3 million of them] wearing masks would be worth it to save one life Edited April 1, 2023 by Chekhov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe you're quoting dictionary definitions to justify hitting your kid. Ok then: Slap: to hit or strike with the palm of the hand or a flat object to hit someone or something quickly with the palm of the hand to slap someone is to hit them with the palm of your open hand to hit someone or something quickly with the palm of the hand or a flat object, making a loud noise You admit to hitting your kid, Chekhov. That's all there is to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
