Honduras 34th Nation to Ban Spanking in the HOME

Honduras is now the 34th nation to ban spanking in the home. 

That comes as a surprise to many Americans! Most folks don't like the idea of a ban, even if they think spanking is wrong. The worry is that we might criminalize parents - which would be the exact opposite of what we are trying to do - SUPPORT PARENTS! If that were the case, then why have the most child-friendly countries including most of Europe (sans the two colonial powers England and France) successfully banned spanking to reduce violence against children?

What can other nations teach us about protecting our children and wiring the brains of our children for peace?
