To some people, it is considered abuse, and to others it is not and believed to be a simple form of discipline.
Moderate corporal punishment, such as spanking, is not usually considered abuse. If it's hard enough to cause actual tissue damage (i.e. it leaves a permanent mark), then that's crossing the line.
Child abuse is a epedemic
When a child is spanked he/she is getting hit and that makes it abusive. The child learns that hitting is a solution to problems. There are other ways to displine a child.
The physical striking of a child can be considered abuse. Ignoring a child is neglect, but if the child comes to harm while being ignored that can be considered abuse.
Yes he was spanked a few times
Yes, corporal punishment is considered abuse in the context of child discipline as it can cause physical and emotional harm to the child.
if it is diciplenary by the child's parents yes(like spanking), but if it is parental abuse or abuse from any other person it is considered child abuse
Yes it could.

I think because some parent might see it as child abuse and they don't want their ratings to go down because of it
