It's banned in my country, and I'm glad. I think a light hit on the bumb is acceptable but setting ground rules from day one and sticking to them is the best way to avoid any physical touching. It is difficult as kids develop in different stages as they get older, so getting through to them what's wrong and right would be one hell of a task. I certainly won't be going down this road for a looong time.
