Boston Wants to Ban Spanking

Lawmakers on Beacon Hill are set to consider a proposed ban on spanking children in the commonwealth.

The issue is set for debate at a Statehouse hearing Wednesday morning.

The Boston Herald reported that State Rep. Jay Kaufman filed the spanking ban petition at the request of an Arlington, Mass., nurse who wants Massachusetts to become the first state in the country to stop corporal punishment.

If this proposal does become law and parents are caught hitting their children who are under the age of 18, they could be charged with abuse or neglect.

Yup them demo-cats are sure taking away parental control. And if they hit the kids over 18, they can be charged with assault. As always with them demo-cats, it's a lose lose situation.
