People against corporal punishment say that kids need to be self-disciplined as opposed to being cooperative out of fear, but it's not in this age, and it more about their personality. For example, a kid burns themselves on a stove. They know what happens if you touch the burner and won't ever do it again. Does that necessarily mean that they're going to stay a good 50 feet from a stove for the rest of their lives because they're scared to get burned? No! People will feel fear about the mistake , it only teach them not to do it again, if we used another way to teach them , we tell them why we need to not doing the mistake again , it will more better, and they will know how to filter the right and wrong. Corporal punishment teaches kids not to do something again because they're aware of the consequences.
The Children will get hurt by the way there thing there supposed to have. There will not go to school if they get punished in a physical way. Many children don't go to school because they are too scared to get hurt. Children are thing in the simple way, what in their mind are just simple logic, there just doing what there thing is right, our responsibility is to let them know, what is right, what is wrong, sharing the love and peace. Be an adult, we should give them second change, they supposed to grow up hearty. In this world, no one will should getting hurt by no reason, and the person that don’t have

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…

Furthermore, another major reason behind the failure of spanking as a disciplinary method is that it is excessively utilized. Research suggests that utilizing spanking as the only method for disciplinary teaching shows authoritarian or negative attitude of the parents (Trumbull, 2006). It is often documented in secondary sources that disciplinary teaching must comprise of a complete plan, and spanking should only represent a single component of that particular plan. Administration of spanking as retaliation has always been noted to create negative…

    Many people question if parents should be able to spank their children. Spanking is still very popular in the US and experts believe that it can cause health issues later in life. Although some parents say spanking is the only disciplinary method that works, it can actually harm the child because it sends the wrong message, usually turns into a more severe, and hurtful punishment, and could make the child have serious health and safety risks in the future. Although spanking is harmful, if a child ran into the street to get their toy, a parent cannot go out and just scold the child, the child does not learn because they are just being yelled at.…

    The Daily Toreador at Texas Tech University also writes, “When dealing with children, physical punishment is sometimes necessary to teach right from wrong. Probably like most of us, I was spanked as a child and quickly corrected my actions. Simply being admonished not to do something, I probably did it anyway. Scolding is an ineffective way to discipline your children, even more so in a society where we want it and we want it now.” (The Daily Toreador, 2014, Pg.2) Also depending on the child and the circumstance at hand, spanking is sometimes all that will get the child´s attention.…
