Why Spanking Should Be Discouraged by Eliza Cook and Kimberly Kopko
To Spank or Not to Spank: Why Spanking Should Be Discouraged By Eliza Cook and Kimberly Kopko Spanking—hitting a child on the bottom with an open hand—is a common discipline approach used for children in the U.S. Most parents who spank believe that spanking will teach their children what is right and wrong; however, recent research finds that spanking should be discouraged as a discipline strategy. This fact sheet highlights reasons to eliminate spanking as a disciplinary tool, as well as other strategies parents can use instead of spanking. All suggestions are adopted from research in a recent publication, “Spanking and Child Development: We Know Enough Now to Stop Hitting Our Children” by Elizabeth Gershoff (2013). Why spanking should be discouraged: Spanking sends mixed messages. Many children report feelings of fear, anger, and sadness after being spanked. It can be very frightening and confusing for a child to be hit by a parent whom they love and depend on. Even if after spanking their child, a parent calmly explains the reasons why a child should act a certain way, it will be difficult for the child to listen and internalize the explanation because they will also be feeling frightened and distressed. Spanking teaches the wrong message. Children cannot learn through spanking alone why their behavior was incorrect. In fact, spanking teaches children to behave only when the threat of physical punishment is present. Once the threat of physical punishment is gone, children may feel little motivation to behave appropriately. Because there are many times when children are away from parents that require appropriate behavior, such as school or in after school activities, this can be very problematic. -

Corporal Punishment of Children in Singapore
Corporal punishment of children in Singapore: Briefing for the Universal Periodic Review, 24th session, 2016 From Dr Sharon Owen, Research and Information Coordinator, Global Initiative, [email protected] The legality and practice of corporal punishment of children violates their fundamental human rights to respect for human dignity and physical integrity and to equal protection under the law. Under international human rights law – the Convention on the Rights of the Child and other human rights instruments – states have an obligation to enact legislation to prohibit corporal punishment in all settings, including the home. In Singapore, corporal punishment of children is lawful, despite repeated recommendations to prohibit it by the Committee on the Rights of the Child and recommendations made during the 1st cycle UPR of Singapore (which the Government rejected). Law reform in 2010/2011 re-authorised corporal punishment in some settings. We hope the Working Group will note with concern the legality of corporal punishment of children in Singapore. We hope states will raise the issue during the review in 2016 and make a specific recommendation that Singapore clearly prohibit all corporal punishment of children in all settings including the home and repeal all legal defences and authorisations for the use of corporal punishment. 1 Review of Singapore in the 1st cycle UPR (2011) and progress since then 1.1 Singapore was reviewed in the first cycle of the Universal Periodic Review in 2011 (session 11). The issue of corporal punishment of children was raised in the compilation of UN information1 and in the summary of stakeholders’ information.2 The Government rejected recommendations to prohibit corporal punishment of children.3 1.2 Prohibiting and eliminating all corporal punishment of children in all settings including the home – through law reform and other measures – is a key obligation under the Convention on the Rights of the Child and other human rights instruments, though it is one frequently evaded by Governments. -
Position Statement on Physical/Corporal Punishment [This Position Statement Replaces Apsaa’S 2013 Position Statement on Physical/Corporal Punishment]
Position Statement on Physical/Corporal Punishment [This position statement replaces APsaA’s 2013 position statement on Physical/Corporal Punishment] The American Psychoanalytic Association (APsaA) condemns the use of physical punishment (corporal punishment) in the discipline of children and recommends alternative methods that enhance children's capacities to develop healthy emotional lives, tolerate frustration, regulate internal tensions, and behave in socially acceptable ways. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, Atlanta, GA) has now formally come out with policy asserting that physical punishment is child abuse (p. 8) and that it should be prohibited (p. 46)(Fortson et al, 2016). This stance is in response to consistent data showing physical punishment to be associated with increased violence and emotional disorders (Durrant and Ensom, 2012; Straus et al, 2013; Gershoff and Grogan-Kaylor, 2016). The USA has no federal law prohibiting physical punishment. There are still 19 states which permit physical punishment in schools. All this is in contrast to the international response to these data on physical punishment—49 countries have banned physical punishment in all settings, and over 100 countries have banned it in schools. APsaA identifies and advocates for three crucial interventions for the prevention of physical punishment of children: 1. Education about the psychological problems caused by physical punishment and about alternative approaches to discipline. Educational efforts should be directed towards parents, caregivers, educators, clergy, legislators and the general public. 2. Legislation to protect all children from physical punishment and to aid parents at risk. 3. Research about alternative methods of disciplining and managing children and about the best ways to communicate these methods to parents, educators and caregivers. -

Corporal Punishment : An Analysis of the Constitutionality of Domestic Corporal Punishment Abstract: As contemporary society has increasingly recognized the independent rights of children, the acceptability of parental corporal punishment has been increasingly questioned. I argue that in light of modern research on the negative effects of corporal punishment, the New York law that sanctions parental corporal punishment is unconstitutional. In order to make this argument, the U.S. Supreme Court’s interpretation of the Eighth Amendment protection against “cruel and unusual punishment” is analyzed. Factors used by the Court to determine whether a punishment is “cruel and unusual” are assessed in relation to corporal punishment.

Junquera 2 Introduction In 2008 the Supreme Court of Minnesota heard a case involving parental use of corporal punishment in the home. -
Corporal Punishment – Archaic Or Reasonable Discipline Method?
CORPORAL PUNISHMENT – ARCHAIC OR REASONABLE DISCIPLINE METHOD? MUI KIM TEH† DEAKIN UNIVERSITY, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA The classic English case of Williams v Eady (1893) had, for over a century, supported a teacher acting in loco parentis when inflicting punishment on a child, so long as the punishment was reasonable and given in good faith. But in response to Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights (‘ECHR’), which calls for all to respect a child’s right not to be ‘subject to torture or to inhumane or degrading treatment’, many countries have banned the practice of using corporal punishment in schools. This might even include the use of reasonable force to prevent a student from injuring others or causing damage to property if it is seen as a form of discipline or punishment. Schools, therefore, have a difficult task of striking a balance between providing a safe environment for the whole school community and a child’s individual rights. This paper gives an overview of corporal punishment trends in the United States (US), Australia, New Zealand, England, Canada and Singapore, and then looks briefly at the jurisprudence of the courts on this issue. It then discusses the implications for employing or banning corporal punishment as a disciplinary strategy, and in particular whether corporal punishment, if carried out reasonably, could be considered a reasonable form of discipline, ensuring a safe and disciplined environment in which the school community, as a whole, might operate. I INTRODUCTION Media coverage and informal conversations with professional educators seem to suggest that student misconduct in schools is becoming an increasing concern. -
“May Cause Lasting Physical Harm” The
“May cause lasting physical harm” The Determination stated that ‘Ariel’s Sponsored Caning’ constitutes restricted material on the basis of the following claim: “Where there is clearer sight of more ‘serious’ marking of the skin, particularly to the latter part of the video, where there is focus on injury that has been caused; the raising of the skin and the heavier marking. This constitutes material which “involves the infliction of pain or acts which may cause lasting physical harm, whether real or (in a sexual context) simulated”, which is prohibited by the BBFC in a pornographic work. “ Corporal punishment such as that depicted on Dreams of Spanking is intended to cause temporary, transient pain. If any marks are inflicted, they will heal within a reasonable timeframe, usually between a couple of days and a couple of weeks. The assumption that this sort of activity “may cause lasting harm” indicates a remarkable level of ignorance. All our performers are experienced BDSM players who know their own bodies and their own tolerances well. Usually performers prefer not to receive lasting marks on videos hoots, as most enthusiasts prefer not to play again until any marks from the previous session have fully healed. Dreams of Spanking makes it a point of principle to operate within our performers' experience and comfort zones, and full negotiation and explicit, enthusiastic consent is shown as a matter of course in our performer interviews and behind the scenes videos accompanying each of the spanking films. Let us examine Ariel Anderssen's bottom at the start and end of “Ariel's Sponsored Caning”: (click on any of the following images to open them at a high resolution in your web browser) These marks were quick to appear, and quick to disappear. -
18 Corporal Punishment
Kuwait Chapter of Arabian Journal of Business and Management Review Vol. 1, No.5; January 2012 CORPORAL PUNISHMENT – A GLOBAL TREND TOWARDS CHILD’S RIGHTS PROTECTION IN NIGERIA* Abstract The paper examined the constitutionality or otherwise of corporal punishment on Nigerian children, often imposed by adults and institutions that take care of children. It analyses and synthesizes the jurisprudence and legal frameworks that supports or does not support this sensitive global issue. The paper finds that corporal punishment is a deprivation and a gross human right violation of children to life, health, dignity and integrity. The paper also looks on how the international community view this problem and makes a case for urgent legislative reforms in Nigeria banning excessive corporal punishment on children. Introduction Article 4(1) of the African Charter on the rights and Welfare of a child1 provides that “in all actions concerning the child undertaken by any person or authority, the best interests of the child shall be primary consideration” This provision has been entrenched in our law by section 1 of the Childs ‘ Rights Act2 which says “in every action concerning a child, whether undertaken by an individual, public or private body, institutions of service, court of law, r administrative or legislative authority, the best interest of the child shall be primary consideration” A replica of the provision is also found in Article 3 (1) of the convention on the Rights of the Child3 (CRC). Bearing in mind the fact that the CRC has been ratified by almost all the member states of the United Nations organization, the “best interest of the child” principle would appear to be the norm presently, both internationally and otherwise. -

INTRODUCTION American judicial history, like any institutional history, has had its shameful moments and its glorious ones, with plenty in-between. Some of the worst and best of these decisions have concerned race relations. Consider such low points for the United States Supreme Court as Dred Scott v. Sandford' and the Japanese-American restriction cases.2 The 3 former, among other things, essentially upheld slavery as constitutional while the latter upheld the constitutionality of the mass internment of and curfew imposed upon persons of Japanese ancestry who lived on the West Coast during World War I. -

Random Praise for the Flogmaster’s Writing Enjoyed the story. C.S. Nothing like pimping out your daughter to line your own pocket. M.J.T. This might be fiction, but it is not far from what used to happen to me with the guitar. Although not as cute as this. L.A. Excellent. Thanks. V.R. Hot, hot story! H.W.D. Awesome story. Wish this was a real event. R.S.T. Worth reading! G. Selected Excerpts From Advanced Learning: God, she hated the cane. Its agony level was a solid ten out of ten, and even a “mere” six with the instrument was enough to make her walk funny for a couple of days. Madison still wasn’t sure why she’d been foolish enough to sign up for this “Advanced Learning” program. Sure, it was prestigious, and it would look good on her college application, but this business of being caned for every tiny fault was awful. From Casual Thursday 1: Sadly for Sam there was no reprieve or rescue. Her forbidden pants descended, leaving her plump, well-rounded bottom half- covered by thin pink panties. She leaned across the woman’s desk and slowly received a dozen sizzling blows with the school paddle. It hurt like the dickens and left her rump boiling hot and sore for the rest of the day. From Flight Delay 1: “Colin, have you seen my skirt?” she asked the man in the bed. “You’ll get it back… after your caning.” Kim’s heart skipped a beat. She didn’t like the sound of this.
