What is the harm of corporal punishment?

Generally speaking, it is wrong to punish children physically. According to China's Child Protection Law, parents and other guardians should respect children's personal dignity and protect their personal safety and physical and mental health. Corporal punishment is a violation of children's rights and interests, which will not only harm children's health, but also harm children's mental health, and even lead to children's developmental disorders, depression, suicidal tendencies and other problems.

In addition, corporal punishment of children can not achieve educational purposes. Children are the future of society, and education is to cultivate children's thoughts, emotions, abilities, morality and social consciousness. Corporal punishment does not make children more sensible, moral and disciplined. On the contrary, corporal punishment will make children feel fear, resentment and resistance, thus reducing their interest in learning, emotional stability and social skills. Therefore, parents should avoid corporal punishment and adopt other ways to regulate and educate their children. For example, by explaining, communicating, talking, telling, imitating, praising and rewarding, we can help children understand the rules, receive education and cultivate morality. Only in this way can children grow up healthily, happily and perfectly.
