Delaware becomes 1st state to officially outlaw spanking

I see. So, letting the toddler to young to understand play with electrical outlets is better for the toddler than surprising the toddler with a light swat to the diaper. I'd have never guessed that, myself.

Are there no parents at all in the Delaware state legislature?
 
No football I guess.

Why don't we just dress the kids up in bras and tin-foil hats. They can toss a balloon back and forth, while complementing each other and hugging. Sounds great.

Which state banned hugging on school grounds? Or was that just a school district?

DE age of consent is 18, that's fairly rare and high as states go. It used to be 21. Imagine being a college student in DE... This is not too surprising, as DE has a long history of making laws "to protect the children". :rolleyes:

USA's future is screwed. More and more kids feel self-entitled and are empowered by the liberals... Taking power out of "grown-ups".

Spanking exists for thousands of years and humans turned out fine.
 
Why doesn't the state just take all new born children and raise them how they please? Damn, now I'm giving them ideas.
 
As long as us adults are free to spank away on each other - I have no problem with this.



:D
 
How does spanking fit into the Non-Aggression Principal? Spanking is not self-defence, it's the initiation of force.

Are we teaching our kids the Non-Aggression Principal or the all-mighty "do as I say, not as I do" principal?

I'm not a subscriber to this "Non-Aggression" philosophy, so don't include me in the we you speak of.

Just wondering, how many kids do you have?

Lol you don't have to quote Non-Aggression Principal like I just pulled it out of my ass. The Non-Aggression Principal IS Libertarianism, it's the foundational philosophy for all things Libertarian. If you don't subscribe to it, then you're not a Libertarian. If that's the case, I wasn't talking to you in my previous post.

Here's the wiki on it, so you can catch up.

How many kids do I have? Are you implying that if I have no kids then I'm not qualified to discuss this? That's an Ad Hominem. Here's an Ad Hominem example: Perhaps you spank because you lack communication skills (e.g Ad Hominem attacks).

To Feeding the Abscess. I believe the Non-Aggression Principal SHOULD be law.
