About you

Individual

1      The Bill’s general principles

1.1     Do you support the principles of the Children (Abolition of Defence of Reasonable Punishment) (Wales) Bill?

— No

1.2     Please outline your reasons for your answer to question 1.1

(we would be grateful if you could keep your answer to around 1000 words)

It’s no use giving some children a treat to behave properly. They’ll soon catch on and almost demand treats. When children are very young they need some discipline to learn ways and respect in fact schools can’t touch children, Oliver same etc etc this has gone on for few years now and bred lots of violence as they know they won’t get into trouble. .  The lady called underwood is wrong . My son has sent his to a private school as more discipline, had 3 jobs to pay for it. But worth it.

1.3     Do you think there is a need for legislation to deliver what this Bill is trying to achieve?

(we would be grateful if you could keep your answer to around 1000 words)

To achieve a worsening behavior with children, we have to introduce stricter standards as just getting worse. Knife crime etc all getting worse because some parents no longer bother to teach right from wrong no smack etc just hand them fancy phones etc

 

2      The Bill’s implementation

2.1     Do you have any comments about any potential barriers to  implementing the Bill? If no, go to question 3.1

(we would be grateful if you could keep your answer to around 1000 words)

The main barrier are ppl with head in the clouds.

2.2     Do you think the Bill takes account of these potential barriers?

(we would be grateful if you could keep your answer to around 1000 words)

Only way to bring children up is with respect and yes they do respect a tap or smack. After all which bother about having to sit on naughty step.

3.1     Do you think there are there any unintended consequences arising from the Bill? If no, go to question 4.1

There be the usual bother. All the ppl on your chat have been brought up with occasional smack.

5      Other considerations

5.1     Do you have any other points you wish to raise about this Bill?

(we would be grateful if you could keep your answer to around 1000 words)

The truth is there but ppl say differently, most give a smack etc when needed otherwise little ones will grow up and join the gangs now forming. Bullies etc. As for the lady saying on your page that she had asked at funeral services if they were ever smacked by the person being buried. Well of course they’re not going to speak I’ll of the person they’re there to bury.
