Corporal Punishment

In “Our view on corporal punishment: To spank or not to spank?” the article fells about corporal punishment. Parents try to find better ways to punish bad behavior. Half of American parents sometimes spank their children. It could cost them up to a year in jail, a $1,000 fine or the demand to attend parenting classes. Those who object to spanking say corporal punishment is a form of violence that causes psychological damage. The advice of the American Academy of Pediatrics is that spanking maybe used only in choice, rare situation, if at all seems about right. I am going to write about giving advice, spending time with children, and giving more freedom.

First, when your children have bad behavior, you should not use corporal punishment. Young people are important at the times when they grow up. When I was young, my parents did not give punishment. I think it was right, because when parents have punishment to children, they have a rebellious spirit. So parents should give advice when they have bad behavior.

Next, parents should spend more time with their children. It makes a good situation because when parents spend time with their children, they have good effects when they grow up. For example, when I was young, my parents fried to spend to time with me. I think it made me a more comfortable feeling and I had the feeling of love. Most parents should spend time with your children.

Finally, parents have to give more freedom to children. Young people want to enjoy their friends. Sometimes, parents have authority over their children. It causes a bad situation. For example, when I was young, I had more freedom, but my friends did not have freedom. It means when people have freedom, they can do more creative thinking, because when people are kept down, they do not have creative thinking.

In conclusion, today many people want to have good children when they grow up. If you give them freedom, spend time with children, and give advice to children, these will have a good effect on children, because I have experience. So many parents have to have these ways. If you have these ways, your children will have good personalities.
