[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your child tells a mandatory reporter that you hit him, then the mandatory reporter is required to report it.

•	child tells you that they have been hit but you seen no marks that were left:  Mandated reporters do not have the role of determining whether suspected abuse is founded or not, that is the job of CPS.  It’s best to take the child’s words as true and report the disclosure unless you have concrete evidence that they are fabricated.

Oh that's good. Waste CPS's time investigating a spanking, or some kids walking to the park by themselves, when there are truly horrible neglect and child abuses cases out there that desperately need CPS's time and attention.[/quote]

I’m a mandated reporter.  If your child told me you hit (“spank”) them, I would report you and then follow up to be sure you were investigated. [/quote]

Sounds like you need a mandated reporter refresher course. Physical discipline, including spanking, is not considered abuse as long as it’s reasonable and doesn’t cause bodily injury.[/quote]
