Well, there are still lots of people who take the bible literal:

"Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them."

https://www.bibleref.com/Proverbs/13/Proverbs-13-24.html

This is the ideological base for it, in my opinion. Unchecked authoritive power tpgether with physical violence. The thing is, the state institutions have not really a clean record on abuse either.

And I did not say anything about excluding the family from monitoring of abuse. I said I see no reason to increase the monitoring. With the meassure in place right now, you could spot plenty of abuse already everywhere - if it would be really about the children.

No easy problem, no easy solution.
