This is a question B3TA fixes the world

Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

The law was changed about 5 years ago. Something along the lines of anything which leaves a mark is classed as assault, so if you smack your child across the back of the legs and there's a bit of redness then you can be reported and done. It seems silly to me. I'm not advocating the use of belts and canes. Anyone aged twenty-something will probably have been smacked but turned out ok.

If some of the children who were out rioting and looting this summer had been properly disciplined then they wouldn't have given it a second thought.

You don't have child, do you?
That said, I guess hobbling children would impair their ability to loot.
