There is a huge difference between spanking and beating. Research shows that 40% of people believe its wrong and 60% think its okay to spank a child. I am on of those 60% because children need to learn not to ignore their parents,act out in school,public,or in general. Those who believe that spanking is wrong say that it’s teaching your child that its okay to hit others that’s not true,it…
Spanking has long been implemented as a form of discipline to correct misbehavior in children. As the proverb goes, “Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them”. While spanking, or more professionally referred to as corporal punishment, has stood as a tried and trusted means of discipline, controversy regarding its integrity, value, and effects has been brought to serious question; and really, this shouldn’t be terribly shocking. The most basic and fundamental aspect of spanking itself is to strike an individual, and this can seem entirely skewed. However, when done in an appropriate manner, corporal punishment ultimately benefits those who receive its brunt in ways that other punishment methods fail to do as effectively.…
In contrast to what the world says, with the preceding understanding of course, there is a time to spank our children. The Bible is clear on this point. "He who spares his rod hates his son, but he who loves him disciplines him promptly" (Prov. 13:24). It's a loving thing to spank our children in appropriate circumstances. If we don't, they're in danger of continuing down a path that becomes more dangerous over time and leads to destruction.…
The Spanking Controversy Four out of five Americans believe it is “sometimes appropriate” to spank a child (Horton). Does painful punishment build a better person? Over the years, there has been a lot of back and forth controversy over whether or not it is an acceptable form of punishment for parents to spank their children. This subject is interesting because I have a 3 year old son who is wild and crazy, and sometimes does not do as he is told.…
So to answer Duke 's question, we shouldn 't use spanking or any other kind of corporal punishment on children because they are learning from their experience and we shouldn 't teach them that violence is the appropriate way to get the things you want. We should instead model appropriate behavior and teach them through calm parenting methods what is acceptable social…
There are different opinions based on this topic that causes an up roar in cultures and different regions of the U.S. I express my opinions throughout the paper solely on personal experiences as a child. Most parent prefer not to spank their children or kid because some think it could cause aggression within the child by demonstrating violent…
Spanking should be used to express only wanting the best for the child. All children don’t respond the same to every punishment tactic. Using other forms of discipline such as time outs, having consequences, or harder jobs around the house could also be good ideas to discipline the child. Spankings could be done after trying other options but disciplining a child is very…
I agree, in my opinion spanking your child can be an effective way to administer punishment especially if the child is caught in the act of doing something wrong; but I think that if you were to spank the child a while after he or she has already done something wrong it would not be as effective as being caught in the act. As a child, I can remember when my parents would give me a spanking for something I did wrong and most of the time if they caught me in the act and punished me right then and there it stuck better in my head. For example, when I was around 9 years old my dad taught me how to hunt for doves every season we would hunt doves and shoot them.…
There is a huge debate in today’s society about whether or not spanking is an acceptable form of punishment and discipline. I believe that spanking is a great way to discipline children, and I believe that there are many positive results of disciplining children by spanking them. Discipline should be very important to a parent. When trying to raise children, parents must teach their children the difference between wrong from right. When children do something right, they should be rewarded.…
Parents have to be cautious when disciplining their children to avoid trouble. Unfortunately, there is not a set behavior that warrants a spanking. Some sources say that it is okay to spank because it aids in building a strong relationship of respect with the parent and child, and it results in well-mannered children and adults. Parents also say that it is normal to spank children and that it is just disciplinary actions (“The Spanking Debate” 1).…
In disciplining children, parents should do everything as kindly and gently as they can first. They should try to understand a child, make sure the child understands what is expected of them, use reasoning and find an adequate nonphysical consequence, like a "timeout" or taking away privileges. But if the child won't cooperate, some kids — at least some of the time — need something more forceful to back it up. b) Establishes Respect Many kids who grew up getting spank by their parents are more respectful to adults c) Disciplinary Tool When used correctly, spanking is safe and effective, and can be an appropriate tool for parents.…
Many believe spanking to not be as effective or necessary because it weighs about the same as doing other forms of punishment like: time-out, explaining why the action was wrong, and even telling the child no. Research also shows that spanking does not actually make a child behave, it just stuns the child for the moment…
Parents love their child to death. Even if they are brats sometimes. And the punishment most parents have are spanking. Spanking has always been the first thing that comes to mind as discipline. Its supposed to teach your child to regret what they did, and to know to not ever do whatever their circumstance was again.…

Spanking can in effect be a form of abuse. Children should only be spanked with your hand, belt, paddle, or similar item. Opponents of spanking state that spanking is done out of anger and that the kids never learn a lesson from spanking.…
