Re: spanking, this is a difficult issue because the usual punishment for child abuse is taking children away from parents; however, this would be a rather extreme measure in this instance. I think it might be useful to ban the practice with the intent to enforce it when it gets really, really bad. Arresting all parents who are guilty of spanking wouldn't really accomplish anything.

Circumcision is weird because there can be medical reasons for it as well, so I'm not sure how you would enforce the distinction here.
