Although it is generally illegal, physical punishment continues in many countries. Some argue that parents should have the right to punish their children in this way. Do you agree or disagree?

In modern days, physical

punishment

is prohibited in many countries but some people insist that parents are the exception. In my opinion,

children

should be protected by law in every

way

. First of all, corporal

punishment

was often utilized among older generations.

This

was considered

to control offspring behaviours.

However

, physical penalties just force minors to obey adults and end up leaving youngsters with mental and physical trauma for a long time.

Moreover

, if

children

get used to abuse from their parents or teachers, they will most likely do the same to their

children

in the future, which does not solve the situation at all.

Consequently

, physical

punishment

can not be justified.

Secondly

, there are several alternatives

instead

of hitting

children

. One well-known method is called time-outs.

is recommended by most paediatricians as a

way

to curb negative attitudes ranging from talking back to aggressive acts. The young ones, whose ages are between two and eight, need to learn the difference between

them to do what they want to do,

This

makes youngsters learn that following rules brings some benefits.

To conclude

, corporal

punishment

promotes offspring to comply with rules forcefully, but I believe that alternative ways

such

as time-outs are more beneficial and harmless.
