is smacking really a criminal offence in certain countries... what if one admitted to doing it openly on the internet?

Joan, I know of someone who smacked their child in the UK. The child phoned 911 and the cops went to the house. The cops did realise that the kid had over reacted, BUT cautioned the parents that the address was logged and any further calls from child then action would be taken.

I found this news article on the subject.
