Abstract
Smacking children as a form of discipline is controversial. This study examined British Paediatricians' views on smacking. We found that their views varied and may be influenced by their personal experiences. This may affect their decision to investigate suspected child abuse and the advice given to parents. More teaching for doctors is required on alternative disciplinary methods.Entities:
