Mae’r ddeddfwriaeth newydd wedi bod yn amhrisiadwy wrth amlygu effaith cosbi corfforol, ac mae’r adnoddau ychwanegol a ddarperir i awdurdodau lleol ar gyfer cymorth magu plant wedi’i deilwra wedi cael eu croesawu. Nid yw’r sefyllfa mor niwlog ag o’r blaen. Mae’r ddeddf yn gosod ffiniau pendant, ac nid yw’n dderbyniol cosbi plentyn yn gorfforol yng Nghymru mwyach.
The new legislation has been invaluable in bringing the impact of physical punishment to the fore and the additional resources provided to local authorities for bespoke parenting support has been welcomed. Lines are not as blurry as before. It’s definite and it’s no longer acceptable to physically punish a child in Wales.
