I always think it's preposterously stupid and oppressive to punish people for doing something that may harm them.

And please, try not to play the "free sex and drugs hippie"-card on me. CR, the one who posted this, is a hardcore conservative, and he's no more fan of this than me*. This is the territory of the parents - NOT the government. The parents are responsible for their children's moral upbringing, not the state. If the parents deem this behaviour worthy of a smack, then they're free to do so, of course. But it's their responsibility, their territory.

*you're free to kill me if I'm wrong on this, CR
Ah, what odd moments that bring our opinions together in perfect harmony.

Enjoy your morally bankrupt nanny state. I'm pleased to say I do not live in such a society.
Liberals and conservatives both have their own flavors of nanny states.
