    Throughout the years many incidents have occurred involving police and citizens all over the United States. Many incidences started as a simple altercation and sadly lead to someone being killed or seriously injured. It could’ve been a misunderstanding or maybe the person was just not cooperating with the officers, but in some cases it might also be that the officer was not using the power he/she had or was abusing it. Many things might have contributed to the problem, and of many are race issues and hate. For example, a recent incident that happened in South Carolina, where a sheriff’s deputy tackled a high school student out of her seat because he believed that the student was not cooperating.…

    Response to "Bring Back Flogging" Jeff Jacoby is a strong advocate for bringing some of the corporal punishment ideals from the Puritans back into modern society. Additionally, the reasons Jacoby gives are agreeable and have an abundant number of sources to back them up. I personally agree with the author's stance on corporal punishment as well as his reasonings for such an opinion. These reasons being: (1) The price of keeping criminals incarcerated is expensive especially with how many inmates there are and (2) The prisons are bursting with overpopulation.…

    He continues on citing the source from 2011, National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners (NAPNA) issued a statement noting that corporal punishment is a serious risk to childhood development, that can cause antisocial behavior and gives the children a greater chance of being violent in their adulthood.

    Recently news reports have been covering incidents of domestic violence and suspected child abuse by players in the National Football League, particularly towards women and children. These stories have captured the attention of the American people, and quite possibly people around the world. However, one story in particular has peeked my interest; The Adrian Peterson case. The recent events surrounding this NFL player have inspired me to take a deeper look into parenting styles in regards to corpral punishment, how discipline techniques are critized , and how or if there is any social impact on society. Mr. Peterson, running back for the Minnesota Vikings, was recently indicted on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child and charged with one count of injury to a child for spanking his four year old son with a “switch”.…

    A Lenient Form of Public Discipline at Trinity Hall Because Trinity Hall is a new school, an honor system has not been fully established for students. When developing an honor system, one must look at how other schools discipline their students and decide whether or not those punishments fit Trinity Hall’s mission and core values of respect, leadership, faith, and perseverance. Corporal punishment in schools has changed drastically over the past 50 years in the harshness in which students are publicly disciplined with. Although it is still allowed in some states, teachers used to hit students by spanking them or using a ruler to hit their hand. This form of punishment has evolved into public shaming which is often more embarrassing and causes…

    Corporal Punishment is defined as the use of physical force towards a child for the purpose of control and/or correction and as a disciplinary penalty inflicted on the body with the intention of causing some degree of pain or discomfort (afis.gov). Corporal Punishment is important sociologically because sociologists are able to study the attitudes surrounding the matter. Due to people in society having personal opinions about corporal punishment, a final decision has not been made on whether corporal punishment should be permitted or rejected in the upbringing of children in society. Some parents prefer spankings while others see it as abuse. If parents argue that corporal punishment is a form of abuse they will not permitted it in their…

    When raising a child, it is ultimately the responsibility of the parents to teach their children right from wrong. There are many different methods of disciplining a child. Some are viewed as more “acceptable” than others. Whether parents chose the more “acceptable” method, such as a time out, or the less “acceptable” method of spanking, both are trying to teach discipline. Webster’s dictionary defines spanking as “to strike on the buttocks with an open hand” (O’Callaghan 2).…

    The meaning of discipline today is being questioned by doctors and parents. The common punishment carried out when a child does something wrong is spanking. Many believe spanking can be harmful to a child’s development, while others believe spanking is beneficial and a crucial part of a child’s development. I believe spanking should not be used as a method of discipline due to the possibility of causing mental and physical problems in a child’s life. Recent studies show that spanking is ineffective in disciplining children.…

    John Ericson in his article, “Breakthroughs might mean the end of animal testing,” details some of the developing technologies that have the potential to greatly reduce the use of animal test subjects in research. These new innovations include computer modeling techniques and simulations, synthetic organs that derive metabolic profiles, and microchips acting as vital organs. Even with these advancements animals are the preferred subjects of testing, for example, the Food and Drug Administration(FDA) still requires animal testing in most drug review processes. Nonetheless, animal testing is still a risky method due to the biological differences between animals and humans. In the pharmaceutical field alone, these differences cause millions of…

    Within limits, discipline is a crucial aspect of Love and Logic; but should be viewed as what teachers can do with students rather than what teachers can do for them. When disciplining a student, the student must realize he still has rights as a student and as an individual. If a student believes his rights are being dishonored then he will not respond as positively to the teachers requirements. Having control of the disciplinary situation involves teachers understanding things from the perspective of the student. Teachers need to be aware that a student will try to shift the blame to anyone but himself.…

    Senior Research Paper “Corporal punishment is as humiliating to him who gives it as for him who receives it; it is ineffective besides, Neither shame nor physical pain have any other effect than a hard one (Ellen Key).” Modern parenting is made to in steel character into a child by using physical discipline. It’s not humilating for the child to be spanked, but it is humiliating for the parent to incorporate this method. Religion, mankind’s responsibility, individual concerns, pretext, family concerns, and inhumane or humane demonstrates why physical discipline is not a form of child abuse. Disciplining a child using corporal punishment to establish moral boundaries is an acceptable form of disciplining a child.…

    Jim Rohn once said, “Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments”(Jim Rohn) but when does discipline become abuse? Disciplining children after a misbehavior, is a typical and normal method, that can teach children of their wrong-doing. Nevertheless, some parents become blind to the fact that too much discipline, can lead to the point where it can actually become child abuse. The article “Child Discipline”, announced that, “In twenty-nine countries and territories surveyed, an average of eighty-six percent of children ages 2-14, experienced violent discipline at home” .This mistreatment develops when a parent or guardian, takes out improper anger on a child rather than educating the child on what is appropriate and not appropriate…

    Spending two and half hours in each classroom, I learned a great deal about early childhood education from ages birth through eight, and the effort and skills that it takes to create a stimulating learning environment. For my infant, toddler, and preschool observations, I spent my hours at the CCC Childcare Center located in our college while for my kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade observations, I spent my time at Casey Park Elementary School. During my observations at the CCC Childcare Center, I learned plenty about the methods and practices that go into early education before primary grades. The preschool classroom really stood out to me because the centers in the classroom were very open ended and filled with lots of manipulative for…

    According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, corporal punishment can be defined as broadly as “punishment inflicted on a person 's body.” A more thorough description is provided by Dictionary.com, however, which uses the definition: “physical punishment, as spanking, inflicted on a child by an adult in authority.” Despite the indistinct line between corporal punishment and abuse, United States federal law allows corporal punishment in both school and home settings. In 1977, the Supreme Court ruled in Ingraham v. Wright that corporal punishment could not be considered “cruel and unusual punishment” as punishment in schools were not the same as criminal punishment (Ingraham v. Wright). It is ultimately left up to the states whether or not to…
