An Island woman who slapped a 12-year-old boy twice has been sentenced to 45 days in jail.
The boy was visiting the woman’s home when she slapped him with an open hand twice after an issue arose with another child and he threw a temper tantrum.
She also pushed him after he refused to go into a bedroom and slapped his arm, causing a mark.
A teacher noticed the mark and Child Protection Services were eventually notified.
