Global view on CP

In my research I have found new and very interesting views on CP, did you know Martin Luther King J.R. never spanked any of his kids,this was found out in a recent interview with his oldest child.Globally.I have recently found out(endcorporalpunishment.org)that 23 states have full prohibition on CP of children.Also New Zealand has passed the Child Discipline Bill(2007)which completely outlaws all forms of CP.After wards many countries including Romania,Greece,Sweden,Spain(most recent),Germany,Israel,and many others followed.The fight to end the "spanking" of children has become a very big issue and I was not aware of how seriously the world is trying to end it.The UN is trying to pass a universal prohibition on CP by 2009 and it is really "gunning"for it so far it looks like there gonna get it.A big reason they want to end it is because they want to end violence ,they believe that spanking teaches kids that violence is an appropriate way to treat one who offends(U.N.).
Most Christian's believe in CP ,"If child is not given the rod it will spoil".They believe you should inflict just enough pain to let the child no it is not acceptable.An interview of an unknown man gave his thoughts on CP(CP_prosecutions)"I believe that reasonable CP is a fundamental right of parents,and that like-minded citizens should contact public officials to condemn any direct or indirect attempt to outlaw spanking.You should know your child and your own limits and what works best with their personality.If you cant control your anger don't because you will leave marks.It should be done out of love not to release your anger never yell at the child or show anger,tell them you love them right after so they don't get the wrong impression,let them know you're teaching them to be a better person."
I agree completely with his opinion you should always show you're kids love never anger.So that they never get the wrong impression of there spankings let them know it is for the better to teach them to be a better.To make them a better member of society"not a Charles Manson of society."

I agree with this Rob, i agree that children get the idea of violence by getting hit by their parents or whoever. And if this is stopped universally major things will change. I do believe that if you treat someone like an animal they will act like an animal and attack. I think this can also lead people into trying to take over places with violence such as killing or capturing everyone in a village and ending up taking it for their selves. These kinds of things still happen.

i like this topic.As a child i too was hit by my mother,displine is part of parenting aswell as learning.I believe if not taken out of context it can help in the long run.
