We the undersigned, ask that the Department of Justice creates a law or an amendment to a family law which allows parents, or a single parent, the right to discipline a child or children that are in their care, including fostered children or adopted children and up to the age of that child's criminal responsibility.
We feel that the only way the nation can cure itself of a cruel infection, namely bullying, is to allow parents the right to speak to their children in a firm manner if their children be known to have bullied any other child or teacher, up to any age.

We need the right to punish, within boundaries,  and without outside pressure being borne against those who have had to reprimand their children

Bullying is an infection that now needs eradicating

This is a true statement, which is now officially a petition.

The response to this campaign has been heavier than I expected. It is exhausting to face such pushback, but seeing so many people agree that we need a change keeps me going.

Kids today have no respect for anyone else. They think they can do whatever they want with zero consequences. Letting parents handle their own kids is the only way this gets fixed.

About time! Bullying is out of control and teachers cant do anything either. Let parents parent!

The way some kids act at school is unbelievable. They have no fear of getting a talking to at home because they know the system will just blame the parents. Bring back discipline.
