Let the parent correct as they see fit. Only they know the child personality and how to reach them.
The neighborhood should beat the shit out of the parent if abuse occurs. If that does not correct the issue then bring in the LAW.

Same thing happened to one of my best friends, when he was young, he started opening up the bottles under the sink and pouring drinks (eia!) Same thing, he got thumped pretty good, and never did he try and do that again.
It's such a fine grey line, that it's up to the parents foremost. With luck, they are using good judgment, and not doing it because they've had a shitty day at work.
In hindsight, I'm surprised I made it this long.
I used to walk home from school 2.5 miles through San Jose, CA, a city with a population of one million.
Does that make my mother an abusive parent?
Map of Route.
The difference, I'm sure, is that I knew the way, these two girls probably had no clue how to get home. Does that make it endangerment? A lapse of better judgement? Probably, but I don't think she should be prosecuted and have her daughters taken away. That's not going to solve anything.
I think smacking your for a just reason is ok.
So smacking you for that comment is okay too?
Look, saying anybody between 15-50 who does not go to the trouble of avoiding having children somehow automatically has the ethical sense to make this assessment themselves is absurd. Having the capacity to fuck and breed means you are alive, it demonstrates, and should confer, no other competence or rights.
My assessment is that any activity intended to cause pain should be illegal. If you need to restrain the kids in your care, if you need systems of reward and punishment, fine, but striking people is not how disputes are (supposed to be) resolved in our society, and teaching children that you resolve disputes this way does them, and the rest of us, a grave disservice.
