In re Welfare of Children of N.F., A07-152, COURT OF APPEALS OF MINNESOTA, July 24, 2007, Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Argument that physical abuse was the equivalent of bodily harm and only required physical pain was rejected. Minn. Stat. § 260C.007, subd. 6(2)(i), clearly required physical abuse and physical abuse required unreasonable force or cruel discipline that was excessive under the circumstances. A child's paddling did not constitute physical abuse.
