is slapping your daughter against the law

honestly…your parents shouldnt have to tell you something mor than at least three times..but if you know you were at fault..cant be mad because he warned you to be quiet..but at the same time…YES to your question…you can call dss or any child services place and report your father as abusive…

One slap?? No… however, if you’re really 24, you’re a little on the old side to be so rebellious…and way too old to need a smack…

p

I have a book, and its a child guide. Its says that verbal or physical abuse is against some type of law. I don’t know. But all I can say is… you are writing this question out of anger.

Your words: >> she had to tell me so many times << and you still didn’t stop - it appears you were out of control - zero respect…get it together !

Obviously you are asking because you want him to get into trouble or you’re at least mad at them/him right now and want to do something about it. I don’t know your life but I would suggest that you try and listen to your parents because being a parent is very hard and frustrating ( you were probably feeding the fire anyway ). Unless you have a bruise or marks on your face from it , I wouldn’t suggest doing anything irrational as it could backfire on you. But if you do have marks and you really feel that your dad wanted only to hurt you and not to teach you a life lesson or punish you for misbehaving, take a picture and call children services.

generally no slapping can be a form of punishment though I would classify it more of abuse than of punnishment its allowed to be done howevere, it the area got bruised, was too hard of a slap (more like a hit) or caused an injury, it can then be considered abuse and youll need to tell someone about it if that was the case

Not necessarily.

Parents are allowed “reasonable” force when disciplining their children.

For example, you “are” allowed to spank, provided it is not hard enough to leave marks.

The problem with kids these days is that they seem to think they can do what they want and the parents have no control over them - they’re wrong.

You can call child welfare if you want, but if they deem the act to be within restrictions, you can count on it that they’ll never take you seriously again and that will give your parents that much more power over you.

Here’s a tip - listen to your parents.

If you were my kid, I’d have slapped you too…fortunately, my teens respect me.

No your parents can do that..its like spankin a kid…you should of shut up if you didnt wanna get slapped…

It is not but you should not do it and My parents spanked and slapped me and left marks
