Behavior Of The Children And It Leaves Me Disgusted

Many parents disagree would disagree with the authors perspective of how children should be raised, however

Parents come home from a long day at work tired and agitated. When agitation gets the best of them, anything a child may do could possibly send them over the edge. A child may be loquacious and that makes their parent/guardian upset. Instead of being pragmatic towards the child, the parent takes all of the stress from work out on the child. Even though the parent may not mean anything of the words being said, they still affect the child. After the parent is able to calm down and realize yelling isn’t the answer, they talk to their child. Parents apologize for what they did and say they overreacted. Sometimes a parent feels compunction for yelling at their child and will bribe them with a toy or food to make them feel better. To conclude, each and every parent is able to relate to yelling at their children when they don’t deserve

This is not to say that the parents are bad parents or stupid, they just do not realize that children can pick up on things at a young age as they watch them. As parents they should monitor what they do around their children, so that the child does not have to learn bad habits. If the children does happen to do something bad they should take the necessary course of action to make sure that the child knows that the act is bad and should tell them the right course of action. Showing your children the way of life and how it should be lived could positively affect their growth as they mature into teenagers and eventually adults. Now I know everyone is not perfect and we may fail to be a perfect role model, but at least try to keep the negativity to a bare minimum around the child. Parental guidance is always necessary in life. As parents you have experienced the things that the child may be going through and can relate to them on matters because you have been there. I believe if more parents were to talk to their children and try to blend it into being their child’s best friend the problem with aggression can seize itself because every learned action can be unlearned.

Kids that grow in an environment surrounded by violence also become violent. If a kid sees his dad hitting his mom he/ she will thing that it is ok to hit others. And they will imitate that behavior. Parents who punch and yelled at their children are only setting up a pattern. And violence only brings more violence. Kids should grow in an environment where they are treated with respect and with love.

The feeling of aggression and rage is natural. We try our best to ignore it because we’ve been forced to think it’s inhumane. Children can’t be shielded from something that’s been implemented from birth. Jones a thriving comic book writer states “Children will feel rage. Even the sweetest and most civilized of them” (3). Rage comes from everyone; we are naturally given this emotion. I’ve seen this in my own life. My three younger cousins have what some might consider overly protective parents. Both the TV’s, and computers have child restriction programs. They aren’t allowed to play any violent video games, yet they constantly beat on each other for the most foolish reasons. Consequently, they’re

There’s no doubt that concussions in football has become a major problem, not just for the professional athletes, but for kids of all ages from age 8 to 19. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has shown that concussion have doubled in the last decade and The American Academy of Pediatrics says that, “emergency room visits for concussions in children ages 8 to 13 years old has doubled, and concussions have risen 200 percent among teens ages 14 to 19 in the last decade” (Keith Dunlap, The Oakland Press). This shows that the seriousness of concussions is not just an issue at a pro level but an issue throughout all levels of play. The risk is definitely present when you play football but it shouldn’t stop parents from letting their children participate in the sport. Playing organized sports such as football isn’t just a place to get injured, it’s a place where your children can learn the importance of teamwork, sportsmanship, toughness, competitiveness, they learn succeed, and also they learn about failure. The parents who don’t allow their children to play sports don’t let their kids learn about these important lessons of organized sports. Football is also a way for kids to take their anger and struggles out in the game and help them express themselves. It can also be a way for kids in bad situations to get a way out, to try and reach the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

The main problem with hitting children is the psychological effect it has on them. One reason parents claim to hit their children is to

Children have the attitude that their parents should be able to work through and solve any

As we have learned in the first module, in every state in the US, the law allows parents to use “reasonable” corporal punishment against their children as long as they do not inflict dangerous, long-term physical damage. We also know that each state has their own child abuse statues. After doing some research, the Texas statue states that parents have a legal right to “responsibly discipline” their child as long as the force is reasonable. However any intentional physical contact that causes bodily injury or extreme physical pain to a child can be prosecuted as a criminal act. Based on the information provided in the case study, I do not feel that the punishment was appropriate. A child, who is 4 years old, developmentally is still learning how to manage and express his emotions. Mr. Peterson reported that the incident was consistent with his parenting style and as an appropriate means of teaching his children right from wrong. Mr. Peterson’s son was arguing over a VIDEO GAME with his brother, a common behavior that most kids engage in at that age. I certainly do not feel that a severe beating with a switch constitutes reasonable discipline for this type of “normal behavior” of a 4 year old. I feel that Mr. Peterson’s behavior was demonstrating to both children that how you handle arguments is through violence.

Parents cite children’s aggression and failure to comply with a request as the most common reasons for hitting them. Children, endowed with wonderful flexibility and ability to learn, typically adapt to punishment faster than parents can escalate it, which helps encourage a little hitting to lead to a lot of hitting (Kazdin par 2). The negative effects on children include increased aggression and non-compliance the very misbehaviors that most often inspire parents to hit in the first place as well as poor quality of parent-child relationships (Kazdin par3). The direct experience of that momentary pause in misbehavior has a powerful effect, conditioning the parent to hit again next time to achieve the jolt of fleeing success (Kazdin par

They can't hit the child for hitting the other person as a way of correcting them and tell them that hitting is wrong, because the parent taught them the act of hitting. "Approval of physical punishment for a child who has hit a playmate appears to include a confusing and contradictory message" (Flynn 33). They may learn from this that violence is acceptable. For example, one day when I smacked my child on the hand for doing something wrong he smacked me right back. So, I smacked him and said, "you don't hit mommy," and he smacked me again. I then realized that this was very confusing to him. So, coming from someone with experience on the issue, I have resorted to spanking in the past and it was not effective.

Violence is a problem seen in many athletes including college athletes. A New Jersey sports phycologist talks about a study he performed with ten Division I schools. His study looked at ten Division I schools in which athletes make up three percent of the population. This three percent makes up nineteen percent of all domestic violence charges of the schools. These numbers are alarming because it shows a very small percentage of people being accountable for a relatively large number of cases. This shows that this is not just a problem within the NFL, but it involves people everywhere and athletes of all levels.

To begin with, spanking your child is advised as child abuse because it can causes great physical harm towards a child’s body. Spanking your child has been one of the most practiced techniques around the United States because it is stated that it is a great example to punish a child from their bad behavior. However, it has stated spanking is not effective to a child, but it causes mental and emotional harm. According to the article, experts say parents find it difficult to know if they either had crossed the line between punishment and physical abuse towards their child. Spanking is one of the most heated debates across the United States including the story of an NFL player, Adrian Peterson from the Minnesota Vikings runner back was put in

Maclean’s magazine article, The Kids Are Alright set the record straight about society’s notion of teenagers today and parent anxiety for their future. Reginald Bibby’s findings are definitely accurate and not surprising at all, in fact, I was more surprised that adults would find some of Bibby’s results to be shocking. I genuinely appreciate Bibby getting the facts straight and trying to change society’s fixed mindset on how corrupt the young generation is. It is so important to acknowledge the developments and successes of the current generation instead of weighing constant worry on us because this anxiety isn’t doing anyone a favour.

Hitting children with objects, pinching, pulling hair, biting, taking off their clothes to punish them, and leaving marks on their body are physical forms of abusive punishment. Physical discipline may succeed in teaching children to respect parents, but it also teaches them to fear their parents and as a result, they will not turn to the parents when facing problems in their life. It hinders that relationship and usually the relationship between parent and child is not that fruitful. What needs to take place is an understanding between child and caregiver, and explanations why what the child doing is wrong. If parents slap a child or hit their child every time a child does something wrong they will learn to hit too. Face slapping is one of the most common abuses because of how shaming it is. The face is a “visible and recognizable symbol of a person’s
