Map showing Crimea as Russia. Please fix. Thanks. --2603:7000:A600:E0:6C44:962:D056:9369 00:48, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[edit]

Used colors are counter-intuitive. Red is universally associated with banning. I propose reversing the colors: Using green for countries where it is allowed and red for the countries where it is banned. --Tchoř (talk) 10:56, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Where is Kosovo?[edit]

The Republic of Kosovo is a independent nation since 2008 and most European countries recognize it as such. It should be, at least, shown as a dotted line at its borders and not in the same colour scheme than Serbia.--MaGioZal (talk) 20:47, 14 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Italy[edit]

Why is not Italy marked with green colour? In Italy, corporal punishment of children is prohibited since 1996, has no one noticed that? 90.226.9.16 22:15, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have read the Supreme Court of Italy ruled in 1996 that parents are no longer permitted to use corporal punishment as educational or disciplinary measure. Then what do you mean with "Its not punishable"? 90.226.9.16 22:12, 24 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Can you give me the number of the ruling? Anyway I say that it is not punishable because in Italy we see parents beating children everytime and everywhere and they are not prosecuted by law nor blamed by other people. Unless, of course, they do it so strongly there is a risk of permanent damage for the child, in which case articles 571 and 572 of the criminal code apply. --Baronedimare (talk) 09:15, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[1] [2] According to these two articles, Italy has outlawed parents' right to use corporal punishment of their children, which means it is punishable (since 1996). However, most Italian parents seems to not have noticed this. 90.226.9.16 13:59, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like you are right. In this article it mentions the Supreme Court ruling, but at the same time there is not a specific law against it. The ruling could be enough, but at the same time almost all the parents are keeping doing it. How should all of this be considered for the purpose of this article? --Baronedimare (talk) 19:32, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
