“Protect the children” is a popular modern rallying cry. If only.
is a euphemism for “adult assaulting a child”—the same act would be a crime if it were an adult carrying it out on another adult. It wasn’t so long ago that there was a similar legal landscape for domestic abuse, and it remains true in several other countries that a man assaulting his wife or girlfriend isn’t a serious crime unless he inflicts serious physical damage. This is the landscape we’ve created for kids in the U.S.
This is. And there’s no real effort to stop it. Children can’t vote. Lots of adults want wide leeway to abuse their children under the guise of “punishment,” and politicians don’t want to tell them no.This should be simple: Don’t hit people. Definitely don’t hit people who are smaller than you, are largely defenseless, are dependent on you and unable to leave, and for whom you are a world-creating figure establishing what’s normal and acceptable.
