There is a difference, however, between punching your child in the face, and spanking him on the bottom when he is misbehaving. Unfortunately, some parents take smacking and spanking their children too far. Some parents use physical discipline to the point where the child is receiving bruises or starts bleeding. Banning the spanking of children will not solve the real abusive cases. People who abuse their children will not stop just because it is illegal(1, Selwyn Duke , The New American).
Is it the only method of discipline that works? Now what a lot of parents don’t know is that, not only does smacking have short term mental and physical effects, it also has long term psychological effects which is why I believe smacking should be banned. Research shows that smacking undermines children’s confidence, weakens their emotional relationships and encourages the use of violence to solve any conflict with people around them. Psychologists say that alcoholism, depression, masochistic fantasies and suicidal thoughts arise from being smacking during childhood. Let’s just stop for a minute and think about this, how on earth can we expect children to play with other children without hitting each other, if we as
When people say that divorce is one of the most difficult realities for children, I agree with them, as I was one of such kids. But still, I think that it is not reasonable to continue relationships with a person whom you don’t love anymore, or even hate only because of kids. To my mind, the effect of such relationships will be even worse, and I will try to explain why. It is clear that children perceive the world in a way that differs from adults’ one. They know what they want and when they don’t get it, they cry, or scream, or express their emotions in another way.
Beating is defined as whipping or thrashing in punishment or an act of repeated hitting or striking (Farlex, 2010). According to Farlex (2010), Spanking is the number of slaps on the buttocks as punishment for children. Beating leads to child abuse because a parent or guardian does not know when to stop. They think beating a child repeatedly will make a child listen to them more. This is not true.
This shows that children would most likely taunt the students who do not have the appropriate ‘fashionable’ clothing, and those who do not have enough money to purchase the brand name clothes, would feel barred from the sociable assembly. Bullies often look for someone who does not belong to a certain community, an ‘outsider’. Implementing school uniforms could make this situation have a less chance to occur. If all students are obliged to wearing uniforms, bullies will less likely single out a person who has a difference ‘style’ or ‘brand’. “Teenagers who took part in
is a bold impression within a teaching environment that violence is acceptable by adults on children, which is dangerous message to send children. With 15% of marriages believed to be abusive, children are becoming surrounded with violence and will become more violent themselves, which will only lead to future complications academically and socially. It also detracts from the learning experience of the child and all those who witness it, and children’s motivation for moral actions will no longer depend on a will to be good but rather a fear of being punished which will be challenged at every stage and hider academic progress. It is also a very blatant form of bullying which is a practice all school should be trying to stop. Secondly C.P.
It is because this may not only lead to a damaged relationship between teachers and students, but also can lead to negative associations. Consequently, positive punishment cannot be used frequently. Apart from the above method, there is another way to chastise the students which is negative punishment. Negative punishment is the removal of a favorable stimulus after an unwelcome performance in order to decreases that response, which means if students did something wrong and their favorable things such as toys or smart phones will be taken away as a punishment. Jason, one of my students, as an example, he loves playing PSP and NDS very much, so before
Sometimes the parents can be the problem, because there are parents out there that are very abusive to their children. Now whipping kids is understandable but abusing them is unacceptable, because by abusing the kids that can cause those to become more depress that they
Most children see smacking as any other kind of hitting and have negative feelings about their parents after being physically disciplined, according to a new report on the smacking of children. So should smacking be banned? Many children’s charities are against smacking children and have had many protests against it. One of the most famous is the NSPCC where there are many celebrity supporters such as Geri Halliwell, Carol Voderman, the Beckhams, Lulu and Elizabeth Hurley. They believe that smacking does not work and just hurts the child both mentally and physically.
In addition social intimidation can lead to fear among children. They fear seeing the bully and getting picked on, or in a more serious case physically abused. Some children are even intimidated into secrecy. They may also keep quite because they feel embarrassed that they allowed this to happen to them. They may fear that their parents will either criticize them or that their parents will intervene and just make the situation worse.
