When
I was young, I was beaten by my father at home. At school, the teacher used
hurtful words if I didn’t answer well, verbal abuse on the one hand, but on the
other hand I was subjected to a lot of sticks, this punishment greatly affected
my personality. Also, I cannot easily make friends, I became shy.
In my opinion, I think the damages of corporal punishment for disciplining
children are psychological and physical.
In terms of psychology, beating affects children's behavior and psychological
development, as it leads to the presence of extreme behaviors in the child,
intense fear, involuntary urination, whether at night or during the day, and
anxiety about interactions with others, and if the child is in his teens, he
may resort to constant escape from the home and fear of returning, and physical
beatings can lead to lack of confidence in oneself and sometimes cause recourse
to isolation, aggression with others, lying in most situations for fear of
being punished, and inability to face one's mistakes, and in the end this leads
to the formation of a loose personality incapable of dealing with life's
difficulties and making decisions.
As
for the physical aspect: the beating comes from the parents or the person
responsible for the child and can cause signs and effects on the body such as
redness in the areas of beating and swelling, or the presence of bruising on
the face and back or signs of the bone and there may be fractures and cyanosis
and possible injuries to the eye as a result of blows to the face and damage to
the teeth Also, and many others symptoms.
