I don't think smacking is illegal yet, but obviously there can be differences as to what 'smacking' might be, and what some people might call smacking might actually be physical abuse.

i live in irelnd... no laws here.....

Yeah it is illegal when it causes a mark. When my Mum did smack me when I was little, boy did she do it hard! Didn't always leave a mark but sometimes it did and it really hurt! I don't believe in corporeal punishment of children at all. But hey... we're getting off topic

Yeah I did change it. Why was it sneaky? The first quote I posted was less succinct on the point and the article I linked to was less related to the subject, so I changed my post when I realised there was a better article out there. Whats wrong with that?

? I was actually just worried that I had offended you (although I didn't understand how by changing a post to something that said pretty much the same thing). No need to snap at me or be pedantic.

i may get a counciller in school... but do they cum 2 ur house, tlk 2 ur parents......

tell ur form teacher.....:?

They won't tell anyone,

 

[Flashy]

They will generally do it at school, during the lessons. They will only break confidentiality if you are a risk to yourself or others, or someone is a risk to you.

Who did you talk to to know they can get you a counsellor? Maybe it would be worth asking them about how it works.
