Legal Question
A man lives in maryland and has physical custody of his 9 year old daughter. When his daughter misbehaves greatly, he spanks her on her butt (fully clothed) with a belt. He leaves no bruises. Her mom accuses him of abuse. I agree with him in his thinking that spanking is abuse because the child is not injured or bruised. If he go to court, does her mom have a case?
