Physical Punishment in Childhood [PDF ebook] 
The Rights of the Child

Ajutor

Providing a wide spectrum of views, the authors explore the fine
line between normalized physical punishment and illegal or
unacceptable physical and emotional abuse of children. It builds on
the emerging field of research that provides opportunities for
children to speak for themselves about their views and experiences.
* Provides observations from children, professionals and several
generations from within individual families
* Discusses the power of language used by parents, professionals
and the media to describe physical punishment
* Reflects upon the status of children in societies that sanction
their physical punishment, motivations and justifications for its
use, perceptions of its effectiveness, and its impact
* Presents a combination of personal, social, legal, and language
factors which provide significant new insights and suggest ways to
move forward
