THE CORPORAL PUNISHMENT IS CHILD ABUSE ACT

SECTION I — Title
This legislation may be cited as the Corporal Punishment is Child Abuse Act.

SECTION II — Definitions
1. 'Corporal punishment' is defined in this act as any form of 'punishment' or 'discipline' meant to cause physical pain to a being, including spanking, paddling, and beating.

SECTION III — Corporal Punishment is Child Abuse
1. No school in the region of Lincoln, rather it be public, private, or charter, shall utilize corporal punishment.

2. All currently existing laws in Lincoln, including on the state, county, and municipal levels, permitting or enforcing corporal punishment in schools shall be nullified.

3. Corporal punishment in the home shall be criminalized in the region of Lincoln. Parents and guardians who utilize it may be prosecuted for petty assault, and parents and guardians who utilize it on a regular basis or in a particularly extreme manner (such as hurting a child enough to require hospitalization, intentionally or not) may be prosecuted for felony assault.

This bill criminalizes all forms of 'corporal punishment' within Lincoln, both in schools and in homes. Studies show that the practice fails, and in many cases, can hurt children's mental health and harm them in the long term.

Corporal punishment is only utilized in schools in one state in Lincoln, Indiana — but that is still one too many, and this legislation will also prevent our other states from allowing it again. Worse, it is still currently permitted in the home in every state in Lincoln, despite there being little to no difference between how corporal punishment in schools and corporal punishment in the home affects children.
