选项
答案 Psychologists warn the parents to respect children’s freedom and rights. A good old-fashioned corporal punishment is out of the question. However, cases of corporal punishment are reported to take place in families now and then. Indeed, the issue whether or not corporal punishment should be abolished has aroused a heated discussion among people. Those who strongly advocate that corporal punishment should not be abolished have cogent reasons for it. First of all, as a proverb says, "spare the rod, spoil the child". Children should be taught to respect discipline, which is the basis of all achievements. Little children are like young trees. In order to grow well, they need to be carefully irrigated, fertilized and trimmed. Furthermore, it heips to reinforce the authority of teachers and parents. Children are hardy creatures. Sometimes they wili test the patience of their parents and teacher; teachers and parents should not be too permissive; otherwise they will spoil the children. But the people who hold the view that corporal punishment should be abolished also have sound reasons. In the first place, it seriously violates the legal rights and interests of chil-dren. Children are human beings too. They enjoy the same equal human rights as adults do. Their parents have no right to exercise corporal punishment on them. In addition, chil-dren may be hurt psychologically. Researches reveal that students who suffer from corporal punishment tend to resort to violence in their future life. Last but not the least, it endangers children’s physical development. It is a kind of brutality and cruelty which may lead to injury or even death of the children. Recently it is reported in the newspaper that one child lost his hearing due to his father’s cruelty. When we consider these two sides more carefully, we can see that corporal punishment does more harm than good to children. Their rights are violated by the uncivilized action. It is detrimental to children’s physical and mental development. Therefore, corporal punishment should by all means be forbidden in families.
