The outcome depends on many complex factors. The worst: If they think that child OR other children in your home are at risk, they can legally remove all your children from your home. IF you try to prevent it, the police can arrest you. Let them take the kids and call an attorney. Do everything Child Welfare asks of you.
However, if Child Welfare uses common sense and truly evaluates you AND your home and the child is NOT at imminent risk, they may require you to take parenting classes. You will probably be REQUIRED to sign a contract to not use physical punishment again. The risk with hitting, spanking, paddling is it CAN cause welts, bruises, or cuts---even if you did not mean to do that. It is sobering when one extra slap leaves a mark on your child. Even more sobering to hear from Child Welfare. Probably the hardest thing-- DEFACS will now be in your life for a period of time. Even harder--- facing your child and somehow having the courage to say "I'm sorry I hurt you. It is not your fault that mommy got in trouble." Please don't make the child responsible for telling.
Resolve to do whatever it takes to keep your child/children, even things that might seem "unfair". And resolve to use a different form of punishment for your kid/s--- and your own sake.
