To some people, it is considered abuse, and to others it is not and believed to be a simple form of discipline.
Moderate corporal punishment, such as spanking, is not usually considered abuse. If it's hard enough to cause actual tissue damage (i.e. it leaves a permanent mark), then that's crossing the line.

Never unless they are older than 9.Personally I would put it the other way round, not above the age of 5 years.

When you are past punishment and all you want to do is hurt the child. Or if you are punishing the child try a different method. You should NEVER leave a mark on your child.

You are doing editorial writing but you need a catchy phrase and your topic is- Should drug abuse by pregnant women be considered child abuse?

Not sure what you are looking for, some are light hearted, others are not. For your consideration... "Intrauterine Child Abuse, is it for you?" "No thanks, I prefer Intrauterine Child Abuse" "Mold your child's destiny with Intrauterine Child Abuse" "Is it abuse if you cannot see it happening? Intrauterine Child Abuse and you" "Parenthood begins at inception" "Help to stop abusing your baby today" "The drug abusing you is abusing your baby too" "Protect your child from abuse before birth" "Mommy, please help me. It hurts so bad!" "Are you okay with the drugs abusing your child too?" "Would you let him treat your child that way?" "If someone else did to my child what I am doing, I would kill them" "Drug related Intrauterine Child Abuse is real"
