Best Answer

In many countries if an adult (even a parent) hits a child (and this is not an accident) then the law has been broken twice. First it is an assault foe any person to hit another person. Second it is child abuse to hit a child.

You should first complain to the police about the matter, then consult an attorney (solicitor) regarding compensation.

Can you receive restitution upon signing over parental rights in a child custody court case?

What kind of restitution? Money? No, that would be selling your child, which is illegal. There is no restitution for signing over parental rights. And if the reason for wanting to do so is to not have to pay child support, then it won't do you any good. A father is legally responsible for helping to support his child unless he allows the child to be adopted. Or, as in some cases, allows someone else to have legal guardianship of the child. But even then, you may still be ordered to pay child support, depending on the circumstances and the state in which you live.


Can you hit your child?

If you hit your child you totally lost the trust and relationship with your child. NO! do not hit your child ever..... i dont want to say you can't hit your child but i deffinitly dont want you to think it is okay to hit your child. hitting your child is basically child abuse and child abuse can cause worst case senareo that your child is taken and put into foster care. also, you would go to court and could be sent to jail deppending on the level you abused them.Another View: Much depends on what the questioner means by "hitting" your child.Some the above answer can be true - especially the part about discipline turning into abuse. There is a line between 'spanking' and abuse.HOWEVER - legally speaking (in the US) the laws of many (all?) states do not prohibit spanking (i.e.: corporal punishment) per se UNLESS it becomes EXCESSIVE. The parental option of being able to choose the level of punishment they apply is generally left to them alone and the government steps in only if/when the punishment becomes excessive.See below links:
