This is a speech from a few years ago, in my homeland of Aotearoa New Zealand. Since then Section 59 of the Crimes Act has been amended so that the statutory defence of correction is no longer available to parents accused of child assault. The
speech complements my Bloggers Unite post below. NOTE that the statistic about child abuse deaths in Sweden is from an independent researcher and is significantly lower than the child maltreatment deaths recorded in Swedish national statistics.
