i'm not saying that is right. if a kid comes into your daycare and says daddy hits me, OF COURSE we have to make sure the kid is not being abused. kwim? but parents are becoming either lazy or too scared to discipline because if the kid goes to someone and says something, it always comes off as abuse.

I did not grow up in this country and what my parents could do was and still is endless. No one cares what your parents choose to do at home where I grew up. But my parents did not abuse me, but i was given harsh punishment if I crossed the line.
