Abstract
Experiences in childhood are unique to individual children. However, the manner in which children may be treated is affected by societal norms, usually reinforced by legislation. Common law or statute prohibits the 'physical punishment' of children in fourteen countries. Yet, in countries such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Britain and the United States, the right to physical integrity accorded to adults is denied to children. In these countries, hitting an adult to cause pain and enforce compliance is unacceptable, and is more likely to be deemed a criminal assault. Hitting children, however, is a securely held, though increasingly questioned, parental right. It is common for children to be 'disciplined' through violent means. Injury, and even death, sometimes results.[…]

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
