if your child has bruises on his face then that is more than giving a child a smack for misbehaving.

So, anytime someone says a Rabbi has common sense, you interject, well actually this Rabbi covered for abusers...?

No, I was responding directly to @Yehuda57 's comment that 'Senseless' Rabbis were the ones reporting it, I simply countered that there were equally senseless Rabbis who covered it up.

Also the real question began with someone who smacked his misbehaving child, not abuse.
So you can smack your kid around and that is not abuse?

a sharp slap or blow, typically one given with the palm of the hand.
ADVERB
in a sudden and violent way.

How did this thread go from careless drivers to rabbis covering up abuse? You guys remind me of my five year old.

“well my friend Rivky had two baby teeth fall out today.”

We discussed this. I am of the opinion that its not. But certainly you should agree that there is a difference between the too.
Also whether the child misbehaved or not, if the smack came out of anger, it's a different ballgame.

Actually I disagree. The issue is the "smack" not why you smacked him. That comes into to play at sentencing for your abuse.  :)

In your opinion, there is never ever a reason to smack your kid?

Common sense is wildly subjective.
Methinks this sums up most of DDF these days.

I've heard this before.

At the end of the day if the kid deserves it, and it gets the job done, why does anger change things?
