Opinion

In a child protective proceeding, the petitioner has the burden [945]*945of proving neglect by a preponderance of the evidence (see Family Ct Act § 1046 [b] [i]; Matter of Philip M., 82 NY2d 238, 243 [1993]; Matter of Tammie Z., 66 NY2d 1, 3 [1985]; Matter of Besthani M., 13 AD3d 452, 452 [2004]). Here, contrary to the appellant’s contention, the Family Court’s finding of neglect based on the use of excessive corporal punishment is supported by a preponderance of the evidence (see Family Ct Act § 1012 [f] [i] [B]; § 1046 [b] [i]; Matter of Chanyae S. [Rena W.], 82 AD3d 1247, 1247 [2011]; Matter of Isaiah S., 63 AD3d 948, 949 [2009]; Matter of Joshua B., 28 AD3d 759, 760-761 [2006]; Matter of Joseph O., 28 AD3d 562, 563 [2006]).

The appellant’s remaining contentions are without merit. Skelos, J.E, Dickerson, Belen and Miller, JJ, concur.
