It seemed the the French were not quite as shocked about a mother
slapping her child. One person even said "c'est son droit". One
American said he/she might consider calling the cops.
In America with its often interfering judicial system and
pushy lawyers, people can be charged for anything. One slap
could be turned into a case of child abuse whereas
people who are really abused get ignored. How
is France different from that? And how do the French feel
about raising children-how strict are they?
