By law, hitting a child with an object such as a belt is considered whipping and thus is considered child abuse, which is illegal. Depending on the severity the sentence length and punishments differ, however, it is common for the child to be removed from their parent. So yes, spanking with a belt is illegal in Washington
Yes u can spank your children anywhere just don't kill them
No, only use an open hand or a small paddle. Never leave a mark!
Look at this link http:/kidjacked.com/legal/spanking_law.asp Washington State has very specific guidelines as to what types of corporal punishment are permissible. The law outlines what types of force are forbidden (ex: no biting or closed-fist punching). It comments on the situations in which spanking is allowable (punishment or correction). And it described the acceptable effects of such practice (ex: it may leave temporary marks or cause transient pain only).

Spanking is abuse. If you have to use a belt. Its not abusive its just a way to get your childrens attention.
Legally it is child abuse. Spanking is legal but not so severe you are leaving marks. The most common problem with corporal punishment is a punisher who is expressing their own anger. Spanking should be used only for certain situations. If you cannot administer an appropriate spanking because of your anger then don't. Put them in a corner, send them to their room until you have it together. Then remind them of what boundary they crossed and that the consequence is a spanking. Then do so with a cool head.
actually i am so sorry i don't know the answer
Beat it up !
Yes

In Hawaii, it is not explicitly illegal to spank a child with a belt as a form of discipline. However, it is important to note that excessive or abusive physical discipline can still be considered child abuse under Hawaii law. Parents should always consider positive and non-violent discipline methods.
It could be. The deciding factor is how it was done. If you use a belt or something beyond the flat of your hand and it is hard enough to leave welts/red marks on the child it is abuse. It is better to use another method to discipline a child. Time out is a good way and is not abusive. As a parent you are a role model for the child and need to think of what you are teaching your child when you hit them.
