TO SMACK IS NOT AN OPTION

Normally, children’s behaviour is not appropriate because they do what they want without thinking about the consequences of their actions. This is when parents participate in their children’s education with psychological or polemical corporal punishments. In my opinion, smacking should be banned.

Firstly, children get wrong very often due to their youth and many times they learn from their mistakes by themselves, that’s why smacking them for every mistake is too abusive. In addition, hitting a person frequently can harm either the body or the mind, and cause several problems as well as encourage children to use violence to solve any situation.

Secondly, there are alternative punishments which are more useful than smacking, for example to leave a child without his favourite hobby and order him to stay at home, it makes the child wonder about the bad things he has done in order not to repeat it again.

In conclusion, to smack damages the integrity of the person, so it is not an option to improve the children’s behaviour, parents have to use other ways to educate their children.
