A person is guilty of endangering the welfare of a child or incompetent if he knowingly endangers the welfare of a child under 18 years of age or of an incompetent person by purposely violating a duty of care, protection or support he owes to such child or incompetent, or by inducing such child or incompetent to engage in conduct that endangers his health or safety.
Section 1. Section 260.10 of the penal law, subdivision 1 as amended by chapter 476 of the laws of 1990 and subdivision 2 as amended by chapter 920 of the laws of 1982, is amended to read as follows:S 260.10 Endangering the welfare of a child IN THE SECOND DEGREE.A person is guilty of endangering the welfare of a child IN THE SECOND DEGREE when:1. He knowingly acts in a manner likely to be injurious to the physical, mental ormoral welfare of a child less than seventeen years old or directs or authorizessuch child to engage in an occupation involving a substantial risk of danger to hislife or health; or 2. Being a parent, guardian or other person legally charged with thecare or custody of a child less than eighteen years old, he fails orrefuses to exercise reasonable diligence in the control of such child toprevent him from becoming an "abused child," a "neglected child," a"juvenile delinquent" or a "person in need of supervision," as thoseterms are defined in articles ten, three and seven of the family court act.Endangering the welfare of a child IN THE SECOND DEGREE is a class Amisdemeanor.
It is impossible to determine that since there is not a set sentence amount for any crime. It all depends which state you are, how old the child was, what type of endangerment it was, and if it is your first offense or not.
Depends on the laws where you live. In general, an "assualt" is a threat to do bodily harm, accompanied by the present apparent ability to do that harm. A "battery" is carrying out that threat. The charge will be dependent on the type of threat.
NO! It's child abuse for which you can be arrested and your child removed from your custody.
yes punching a child is a form of abuse not punishment.
