Summary

The House passed a resolution urging multiple Louisiana agencies and research groups to examine the link between parental discipline, allegations of abuse, and juvenile delinquency since 2015. It seeks data on arrests of parents for alleged cruelty, cases where a child's threat to police stopped discipline, and whether such threats hinder early intervention for at‑risk youth. The findings must be reported before the 2027 regular legislative session.
