DL0130: Tool Kit For Teachers

Abstract: For children in many countries, corporal punishment is a regular part of the school experience; it is also a form of child abuse. Corporal punishment is deliberate violence inflicted on children, and it takes place on a gigantic scale. Legal defenses for teachers who hit or beat

children still exist in most countries of the world. Corporal punishment,

independence, and a lack of caring for others, and thus greater problems

for teachers, caregivers and other children.
