Is it ever okay to slap a child in the face?
I see. What about cultural differences? In some cultures, physical punishment is seen as normal and expected. How should we approach this issue?
While it is true that cultural attitudes towards physical punishment differ, research shows that any form of physical punishment can have negative effects on children's mental and emotional development. It is important to address these cultural norms and promote more positive and effective forms of discipline.
