There are different alternatives to reprimand and insurance are not necessary.

The arguments for giving or not spanking are so varied and contradictory that the pages and days would not reach to reach an agreement. However, the two positions agree that giving a punishment or not during childhood is related to adult attitudes to face the world.

For the disciplines that study human behavior it is imperative and necessary to teach the child to understand that his actions have a consequence, therefore, there must be reprimands but not physical punishment.

The most important thing in the education system you choose is to be clear that your child is in a learning process. Therefore, many of his acts are not conscious. At this point the patience, tolerance and flexibility of the adult to guide are fundamental.

How do you expect a child to make adequate and responsible decisions if you have never shown him the possible consequences of his actions? It is essential that before a punishment or reprimand has been imposed, a prior warning has been given. For example, if your child makes a tantrum or throws things up for the first time, explain the consequences they will have the next time they do and complies.

With the spanking, your child feels pain, shame and fear of losing the love of dad or mom. When they repeat much, learn to block these feelings and to be tolerant of abuse.

The harder the physical punishment, the more likely the child will grow up with problems associated with low self-esteem, delinquency, mental illness, and violent behavior.

There are more constructive and appropriate alternatives to give a spanking, such as putting a child in a corner for a few minutes, take away a privilege, suspend the activity that performs or comply with the previously agreed.

Reprimand should be a consistent, immediate, and offensive-related tool to ensure your child understands the wrongness of their action. You must never hurt him.
