Discipline or Abuse?

Question

People often ask if a particular parent-child interaction is just a parenting style (which may be different from another parent’s style), a form of discipline intended to teach the child and correct inappropriate behavior (which may be, in part, influenced by the parent’s cultural background) or child abuse. It is not always easy to answer, especially when we don’t know all the facts.

So what’s your take on this type of dicipline or correction is it child abuse?
