hmm
yeah ! i do consider physical punishment to be a shortcut.....
what are we teaching children by doing that ?
that its might thats right?
to become hitters?
to take shortcuts whenever presented with challenges?
to store their anger, etc expressions within themselves ?
I don't think these are the goals that parents would like to set for their children !
Having said that , i guess the habit of giving physical punishment is like genetic lol.....it flows from generation to generation....until something really drastic happens !
Now , i don't think banning physical punishment is the right way either ! That would be another shortcut........how to make people realise that the negatives of physical punishment long overhaul the positives is the qn ! And ofcourse, even after realising, we can never be sure who'd follow it and who'd not......who doesn't like shortcuts after all?π
