That kind of reasoning doesn't hold up, I'm sorry. We don't allow parents free reign over their children, they are not allowed to do whatever they like to them.
As a progressive society I do think that we should be examining why we do things, and if we are inflicting pain (no matter how little or inconsequential you think it is personally) then it warrants looking at why we are doing something. If it is merely because "dad is" or "an old book says we should" maybe we should hold off until there are more compelling reasons.
