Yes, yes it is.
See law below:"Parent/guardian/person/teacher with care and supervision of minor can use force if person believes force necessary for welfare of child and force is not designed to cause or known to cause a substantial risk of causing death, serious physical injury, disfigurement, extreme pain, or extreme mental distress.§ 503.110. [Criminal Code]"This means as long as no Physical harm comes to the child then it is legal to spank, or punish. even with a belt. it is in many debates as to weather anything other than a hand is abuse, and in many cases it is not as some mothers use a belt on the butt because a growing Boy will be much more tollerant of a smack from a hand and it may actually injure the mother as the butt is alot more resiliant than a hand. and any harm from a belt will pass in a considerable short moment. however any use of any object to any other part of the body can cause more harm and is considered to be casue of great harm to the childs life, and is illegal.
Physically, yes. Legally, maybe. Considering education, NO! Violent punishing is wrong. It gives the child the impression violence is ok and will encourage it to use violence against others too.
It depends where you are. In many places they could be classed as offensive weapons.Added: (in the US) brass knuckles (of any description) are classified as Prohibited Weapons. The mere possession of them is against the law.
The seat belt law in Georgia for people ages 8 to 17 is that a seat belt is required to be fastened in all seats. People who are 18 and above only have to have their seat belt on if they are riding in the front seat. If an officer catches a seat belt not on a person in either case, and it is a first offense, the fine is $15.
In Texas, a child can legally sit without a car seat once they reach 8 years old or at least 4 feet 9 inches tall. It is recommended to follow safety guidelines and use a booster seat until the seat belt fits properly without it.
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

Spanking is abuse. If you have to use a belt. Its not abusive its just a way to get your childrens attention.

No, only use an open hand or a small paddle. Never leave a mark!
To what extent? You can't beat them to death, that's definitely illegal.
As is often the case with legal questions, no simple answer exists. This is because different states have different laws. Making this more complicated is not only the different laws in existence in different states, but also the differences of definitions in different states. For example, what one state might consider to be a severe and illegal spanking, might be perfectly in line in another. Currently, however, it seems to be the legal trend to work towards banning the spanking of children. Save
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.
If you are under 18, you should talk to your school counselor, priest, minister or the police. This is child abuse and is illegal.
