California Corporal Injury On A Child Defense Attorneys

Corporal Injury on a Child Defenses – Penal Code section 273d

Reasonable Discipline

The state permits a parent to discipline a child; however, the discipline must be reasonable. For example, using a large wooden stick or a wooden paddle to beat your child is not reasonable discipline. On the other hand, spanking a child with an open hand would qualify as parent’s right to discipline their child. The law determines whether the discipline was reasonable or valid based on whether or not the punishment was warranted and whether it was excessive or reasonable under the circumstances. Therefore, it is a valid defense to assert that, as a parent, you were merely disciplining your child in a reasonable manner.
