    Default Giving a Child a Hiding

    My question involves child abuse or neglect in the State of: South Africa

    I wonder if anyone could assist me and tell me what the implications would be should a parent give a child a hiding. When I say hiding I mean a smack on the bum, once maybe twice and not causing bodily harm or injuring the child.

    This is a US based legal information forum.

    To the best of my knowledge, none of the volunteers here are familiar with South African law.

    This site is for US law. Here is a link for a site that would cover South Africa:

    No one here can really give you any opinions that would matter, unless they know South African law. I know that I certainly don't want to give incorrect info or opinions, and I don't believe anyone else here wants to either.

    It might take a few days to get an answer, but post on the link I gave you and hopefully someone will know the laws in your country.
