I am a child myself and I grew up with this punishment. I believe that it was a really good thing as I know what is right and wrong. I find nothing wrong with it. I don't even mind if it is someone else's child as long as it is controlled and not for no reason at all. As you’re standing in the cereal aisle at the grocery store trying to decide which box of cereal you’re going to buy this month, you notice a young girl throwing a temper tantrum. Apparently he wanted the box of cereal with the tiger on it, not the one with the colorful bird.You ignore it at first, until you hear the mother say, “No” multiple times and the boy continuing to kick and scream. The mother finally gives her son a swat on the butt. After …show more content…
What’s your reaction? Are you the one who gives her strange and disappointed looks? The one who confronts her on her parenting techniques? The one who reports her to the authorities for child abuse? Or the one who thanks her for teaching her son respect and discipline?
Spanking can easily be misunderstood .We’ve all been through this typical grocery store scene. Spanking one’s child was not even considered an issue, it was the typical punishment when the first warning was ineffective. Today it is one of the most controversial topics in our society, with some states even attempting to outlaw spanking children. Many people view spanking as child abuse and if a parent spanks a child in public, they are likely to get stares, confronted, or even reported to the authorities. Being spanked a few times as a child myself, I do not think it is a bad thing when used properly and in moderation. I will even take that belief on with me when raising my own children.Today we will look at how many people refuse to see the positive aspects of spanking children. Spanking has been around since the beginning of

These are the cases where the child’s behavior can easily be tied to the environment in which they live. Where else would they learn to become that aggressive?
Aggressive behavior as a child leads to advanced aggression as an adolescent and causes juveniles to start causing problems within society. Discipline If you want your child to become a responsible, respected adult then you must discipline your child. This must be done without humiliation or abuse. Discipline is the process of teaching your child what type of behavior is acceptable and what type is not acceptable. In other words, discipline teaches a child to follow rules.The most important thing is to teach the child what it is that you expect of them, teach them the consequences of not following the rules.
When children don't get disciplined in a way that reflects their actions, they'll continue to act out of control. A simple "time out" is often not enough of a threat to a child. When children get spanked by their parents, it shows them that there are consequences to their actions. To avoid them, they need to learn to act better. These days, children don't get in trouble for anything. Physical discipline
“Physical punishment of children: Can we continue to accept the status quo?” by Kim Oates is a scholarly source found in the Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health. The author of this journal argues that discipline with physical punishment is not only inefficient, but it also causes problems in the emotional and behavioral development of children. He follows by providing practical forms of disciplining such as: removing privileges, teaching by example, having constant supervision, setting appropriate rules, and being consistent. Kim Oates states that those parents who use physical punishment to discipline their children, likely experienced it during their childhood and are usually unaware of these other methods of discipline. Oates included
Pedefiles are a big problem in America now a days and the law is acting as if the pedefiles are getting less time while the drug dealers get more time but if you look at the money that is involved that’s a lot of government money now , maybe that's a problem , maybe that's why they get more time. Whatever it is a child is way more important than a drug dealer and some money. Woman and Men are scared to walk alone at night, how can we just let these bad men take over our fears and make us think like that?
My children still love me the same and they understand that with misbehavior comes consquences. All consequences hurt in some form or another. Time outs, taking away electronics, restriction from fun activities, are all painful in some respect or another in their minds. It took me growing up to understand something my mom always said, "this spanking hurts me more than it will ever hurt you." I thought that was a joke until I have disciplined my own children. It does have some sense of hurt in my heart to cause pain to them but I have to get them to understand that there must be a consequence involved in breaking the rules. That is part of life. Now let me do say that I have never spanked my kids right off. It has always been my last alternative of many verbal warnings. If you continue to disobey you have to deal with the end result. I however have to end this discussion with saying some parents should not be allowed to spank their children because they don't understand the difference between abuse or "beating" versus a simple spanking. The limitations have to be considered as to where you have contact on your child's body, the force and strength, and any objects used. We, as parents, have to know those limits when
I believe that kids should not get spank. For example, if you spank the kids they will not listen to you they will think that you are mean person. So I think you should punish the kids by taking their phones, games, and laptop, anything they like they will feel bored and realize they did something bad and they will not do again. For instance, when I was around the age of twelve I didn’t use to listen to my mom so she will spank me I used cry and go to my room not talk to anyone. My mom use to hate when I don’t talk to her she feel bad so the more I get older when don’t spank me she just talking me if I do something wrong . I believe that kids will stop behavior when you take their favor
I feel its okay to slap a small child on their hands to tell them no, but not an older child. I don’t think spanking a child should ever leave marks on their body. A parent should only use spanking as a discipline and not do it when they are angry. When a parent is angry they are more aggressive and leave marks. A child should never fear their parents, they should understand that they are being spanked as a form of discipline and guidance. After a spanking a child should always know their parents love them and are not hurting them they are directing them to better
You remember the pain you had when you were young after You got the spanking of your life. Yeah, “imagine hearing get your ass over here”. “Boom, crash” noise you go to check out the crash to check if everybody is okay. You see that a man has his belt off and the kid is holding three loaves of bread in their hand and you see the man bring his arm all the way behind him and “Wham”,he hits the kid with the belt.You here the kid yell for help and he makes eye contact with the child and he ask you to help him.Now the man is clearly drunk you can tell when he says, “you need to mind your business” he hits the kid again. What would you do? One of the greatest debates is whether or not a parent should spank a child. Several meta-analyses have been conducted over five decades regarding this subject and although this is very hard topic to measure it has been said that in addition to psychological effects on children that may be a very high price the parents will have to pay. Measuring the effects of spanking have proven to be difficult, not only because of individuals unmoveable opinions but because of the other physical abuse that usually accompanies spanking People who are spanked are negatively
Brendan Smith (2012), focused on the harm and the negative impacts of parents spanking their children. Internationally it is viewed as a violation of children’s rights, and has even been banned in 30 different countries (Smith, 2012). Elizabeth Gershoff, a researcher on physical punishment suggests that physical punishment does not work because you have to make it stronger and harder every time in order to have the kids comply (Smith, 2012). It has been found that children who were physically punished are more likely to believe

Young children should be tried in court for committing a crime because they have the mentality to commit a crime, then a child should face the consequences. Besides a child should not be thinking about committing a crime or thinking about any violences either. Many children are abusing the punishment for children because they think they are not old enough so they will be fine with it.
When your child is angry or acting out in a misbehaved manner do you allow them to hit other children? Most parents would say they wouldn’t let their child hit under any circumstances because it isn’t morally right and they could potentially hurt the other child. This is found to be extremely contradicting in the sense that parents tell their children time and time again to never hit, yet when the parents get upset with their little ones they go ahead and spank them out of whatever emotion arises. How is the child supposed to learn that hitting isn’t okay? And how are you to know your limits when spanking out of anger or frustration? Although spanking can support the parent as the authority figure, spanking can be taken too far and be considered abusive, and it reinforces that violence is okay to the
While surfing Facebook, I have come across a few videos of the parents and even a stranger spanking a child in a video. I am not a parent so I cannot tell anyone how to discipline their children. However, I do not want to see a child being spanked or as they in the south whipped. I was spanked as a child, but my mom never videotaped it and showed it to anyone. I say, leave the discipline offline and in your house. Below are a few reasons why I think disciplinary actions should not be published online.
All and all you should calm down or think first before you start the beating because beating causes a lot of issues.Spanking your child could turn them away from you,and cause behavior problems.Parents shouldn't spank if they have major depression, major marital problems, or substance abuse problems. They shouldn't spank in desperation or in anger—that's what leads to the negative outcomes, like increased violence, associated with corporal punishment. Never spank a child when you are angry. When you are emotionally charged, it is in that moment of anger, fear, confusion, etc. that you are likely to hurt the child and that is when excessive corporal punishment is most likely to occur. If you are emotionally charged, you need to take a time out and pull yourself together.Never spank a child when you are angry.
To be successful is hard Yet, to fail is a given. It's ok to be '16 and pregnant' That’s the world we live in.
As a child I was spanked when I did something wrong. My parents never left a mark on me what so ever. Being spanked taught me respect and kept me in line. The way my parents disciplined me, I think is an accepted method of punishment. I believe what parents do to their kids at home
Children are like flowers, if well taken care of they will bloom. If ignored or tortured, they will wither and die. Child discipline is one of the most important elements of successful parenting. Today, many people have this notion that physical abuse is in no way a solution to helping children discern between right and wrong. Since generations children have been taught the art of discipline through physical punishment. Often this approach to disciplining has resulted in two outcomes, one is where the child becomes more tolerant and is willing to adhere to what he/she has been told, or the other which more often results in children developing a sense of anguish and desire to revolt.
