Family : What harmful effects corporal punishment at school has?

Most of us have experienced corporal punishment or have been humiliated at school or at home.As a result most of us have thought that it is something acceptable since it has been used by people who loved us and cared about us such as parents and teachers.

Nowadays ,however,there's a widespread understanding that corporal punishment is a kind of illegal child abuse that harms children and inhibits their thriving.
It leads to life long psychological damage such as depression, inhibition,rigidity ,anxiety and suicidal behaviour.
It also leads to the loss of interest in learning,school absenteism and dropping out of school.
Corporal punishment may result in cruelty and violence in and out of school.In deed ,a significant number of criminals proved to be among people who were aggressed or physically punished when they were children.
Children who experienced corporal punishment regularly have slow or interrupted cognitive and emotional development. They lack self confidence and usually feel ashamed of themselves because they were submitted to regular humiliation. Their school results suffer and their ability to form healthy relationships can be affected.
Besides,corporal punishment has never helped children learn what was wrong with their behaviour.
Many teachers  and parents think that educating is all about controling children and making them comply with their wishes and forget about its main goal of guiding children on how to behave and learn from their mistakes.
