Yes. It just depends on the severity of the spanking. If it's a ruthless and causes significant physical damage, then it is a crime.

If you are 18 or older, then no. That would be physical abuse, maybe rape.

Whether a parent or any other adult can legally use physical violence against a child is entirely dependent on the legislation in force where they live. Contact your local authorities to request information on this point.

It is not against the law to spank your kids. You shouldn't spank your kids if they are 8 and older though
