A BC Provincial Court Judge has found a Salmon Arm couple guilty of assault for spanking their 14 year old daughter. It happened on February 14th of last year after they discovered the girl sent nude photos via Snapchat to a young man.

Fourteen is way beyond "spanking" age. Mild physical correction is for small children, not adolescents.
Sounds like fear and frustration clouded their judgement, and they made a poor choice and assaulted their daughter under the Criminal Code.

I am certainly not against spanking kids by way of discipline and training, but 14 years old may be too late.

Age makes a big difference. Just 14 years ago, they could have aborted her and gotten in less trouble...

"..the girl sent nude photos via Snapchat to a young man." This is what she's doing at 14 and she's got parents whose parenting skills, apparently, don't go beyond spanking a 14 year old. I don't hold out much hope for this girl.

Sounds like the young man needs a spanking...
doesn't anyone know how to parent anymore?
The parents should of taken her f****** phone and internet privilages away long before this happened.
btw, the whole thing sounds contrived, did they spank her in the mall?

You take away privileges from a 14 year old not spank them. The parents are probably drug addicts or mentally retarded.
It is better to be judged by 12 than to be carried by 6.

Nope, religious.
The judge said the child knew her parents believed the discipline came from their adherence to the Bible, which they said advocates the use of the "rod" to spank, rather than the hand, as hands are to be used as instruments of love.
SALMON ARM , B.C. -- A British Columbia mother and father who used a plastic hockey stick and a skipping rope to spank their 14-year-old daughter have been found guilty of assault with a weapon.
A provincial court heard the couple from Salmon Arm, B.C., wanted to punish their daughter for sending nude photos to a young man over the Internet and instead of being grounded, the teen chose the spanking.
Her father used a mini hockey stick two or three times on his daughter's buttocks over her pyjama pants and when her mother came home, she delivered a similar punishment with a skipping rope.
When the girl went to school with lacerations and bruises, her friends told administrators, who called RCMP.
The father testified during the trial that he had no clue that the law doesn't allow corporal punishment or that he might be breaking the law when he spanked his daughter.
Judge Edmond de Walle said he was troubled by the father's denial of the girl's bruising as described by her friends and there was no evidence he looked at the girl's injuries after the spanking.
"The testimony of the father regarding the injuries to his daughter suggests that he is downplaying the seriousness of the events that took place in the garage of his home," he said in his ruling posted online earlier this month.
"At the very least the father's evidence leads me to conclude that he gave little thought, if any, to the possible injuries suffered by his daughter."
The judge said the child knew her parents believed the discipline came from their adherence to the Bible, which they said advocates the use of the "rod" to spank, rather than the hand, as hands are to be used as instruments of love.
De Walle found the teen could not have consented to such a punishment given the amount of force applied, the use of weapons and seriousness of the assault.
He agreed that any reasonable parent would be concerned about their teen sending nude pictures, but to suggest that responding to such acts with a spanking would educate the girl is simply not believable or acceptable.
"The parents took no educative or corrective steps by seeking out expert help or any other assistance to discuss their daughter's actions with her. Their actions were solely punitive and not corrective."
De Walle also said the punishment was punitive and degrading.

Another report indicated the girl had shown bruises on her back side or legs to one or two girls at school. They then reported it to the principal who apparently called the police. I think the father used a plastic hockey stick and the mother a skipping rope.
All I can say is that I am glad my girls are women now.

Wouldn't that just be a 4 minute minor?

Amen to that. We used a wooden spoon, and the most either of them received were five strokes. No bruising, and my wife checked. The last spankings were around eleven years old. Neither of them ever sent nude photos to anyone. They both went to the marriage altar for their first kiss. I thank the Lord for two exceptional daughters. They both continue to faithfully read their bibles and pray and attend church. They both married men of like faith and conduct.

I need to be educated
Please post the bible verses that recommend spanking as a deterant.
If I were to spank my sons at 14 it would of turned into a fist fight, I never "spanked" my children, nor do I have any problem with them, they are productive members of society.
Its ridiculous to spank a 14 year old, stupid.

If the father had checked the alledged bruising, he would probably been charged with sexual assault. I do think the proper response would have been to take the cell phone out, put it on the chopping block, and take the axe to it. As to whether or not corporal punishment is acceptable, I believe there are times when it is but usually it shows weakness on the part of the parent. I hope these parents at least have sense enough to get rid of the cell phones in their home. If I was in the fathers shoes, that girl wouldn't even get money for stamps from me and when she reached the age of majority she would come home to find the locks changed and a suitcase in the yard.

Dollars to donuts says she will not be living in the parents house for some time -- place of safety, and all.

The sick, sad truth
I probably hit more elk with a pickup than you have with a rifle. I have yet to see anyone claim Leupold has never had to fix an optic. I know I have sent a few back. 2 MK 6s, a VX-6, and 3 VX-111s.
