It’s not fishing to suggest fully grown adults should be forbidden from smacking babies/toddlers ffs. It is genuinely disturbing to think that people see that as acceptable behaviour. Striking defenceless children. It’s abhorrent. 

I see you've given up on the taboid language in this one. Not so coluorful but at least it's not fishing

Maybe bosses should be able to smack employees whose work isn't up to scratch.

Slightly off-topic, but the number of perma-seething right wing bigots who were demanding Clarkson keep his job was unbelievable. Threatening to boycott the BBC and shite like that if the guy he punched wasn't fired instead.

Presumably they would all be okay with getting punched whilst at their work.

I wasn't asking about the effect, I was asking about the practicality. How do you do it? Where do you hit them? Why is your first reaction to hit them... wherever it is you hit them?

Second guessing, fortunately I haven't been there but I would imagine once you've dragged the kid from in front of the bus, grab them to you in a big hug of 'thank God' (even if you don't believe) that you feel the need to make it a memorable occasion that they won't repeat so instead of buying them ice cream you physically chastise them in an appropriate way that will stay with them as a lesson.  Or at least that's the logic.

Its not my first reaction. Its my last reaction. 

Dont touch that socket.

Louder. Don't touch that socket.

Louder. Dont touch that socker.

Move towards child. Dont touch that socket. 

Grab arm. Loudly, don't touch that socket.

Tap on bum, finger wag. Loudly, dont touch that socket.

For example

In fairness I've forgotten about all those times I ran out in front of a bus because my maw didn't give me a skelp afterwards.

I'd say yes. A smack is an open hand striking which doesnt refer to the power involved. 

We will let the the fact that there has been no change in legislation slide.

In your opinion what has changed in the law that has meant that a " tap on the arse" is now a criminal offence?

Is a tap on the arse not a very weak strike with an open hand? I'd say it is.

Have you considered placing the child out of reach of the socket

I don't recall ever being smacked by my parents. I do remember vividly getting the belt in primary 2 for "running on the grass".  I know this isn't about the belt given how long that's been away but leathering a 6 year old for f**k all still outrages me and it's good to know that the c**t that did it will have been dead a long time now. I don't agree with hitting children so I'm fine with the ban. "Never did me any harm" is a bollocks argument.

Imagine getting a hard-on for hitting kids an order of magnitude smaller and weaker than you. f**k's sake.

Why didn't you give a reason as to why she shouldn't touch that socket?

Aye, but she's got legs

Have you considered blocking access to/childproofing anything which might cause the child danger? Have you considered otherwise occupying the child? Have you considered something more intelligent than repeating something which isn't working before hitting the child?
