Smacking children is the best way to discipline. Do you extend agree or disagree?

Some believe that hitting children is the ideal way of making them be at their best behaviour.
However
, there may be some unwanted consequences of the action to both parents and the child themselves. In my view, I strongly believe that violence is never the answer to anything and should not be practised in any family. First and foremost, the action of smacking children could affect the youngster's views negatively.
For example
, they would hit other people, say their friends, if things did not go the way they planned. By

would lead them to be a hot-tempered person,
thus
pushing people away from wanting to be close to them. Other than that, the act could deteriorate the boy's mental health. To depict, the kid could be traumatised from the smacking,
hence
never feeling safe being with anyone, even their family. They may
also
be diagnosed with mental illnesses
such
as depression if they are always unhappy with themselves as making mistakes would result in them getting hit. In conclusion, it is inappropriate for parents or guardians to smack their children to discipline them.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
