A recent article that was written showed that no matter what punishing a child with the use of corporal punishment can be beneficial. While many ways work the one with the most behavioral changes is corporal punishment. Cheating can be a huge part of why students fail and why many of the members in our today society turn to crime as a way to make ends meet. Students will not cheat if they know that the punishment for cheating is much harsher then previously. More guilt reactions to transgression since an unpleasant consequence was imposed (Trumbell, www.goodparents.org, 2017). Students and children show more guilt when harsher punishments come and that is mostly because they do not want the punishment again so they don't do it.

While corporal punishment can be a good learning tool for some children it has been proven to be worse than other forms of punishment. Many children that grow up with the use of capital punishment see the use of force as something that is ok and should be used to discipline. This can be good most take the punishment to a whole new level and it becomes abuse. Children who are hit are more likely to be aggressive toward their peers, approve of violence in relationships, bully others, and be aggressive toward their parents (Schwartz, www.mother.ly, 2018). These children become tools of hate and aggression towards others and this can be contributed back to their childhood and the type of punishment they receive.

While cheating is a horrible thing to do, it ruins lives later on. The use of capital punishment from a teacher or other staff member should not be allowed. This just shows kids that it is okay for anyone to abuse them and this only leads to fear within children. The only question that should be asked is if students should be afraid to stand up to something with the fear that a teacher with the right of the law can hit them. I believe that it is okay in a home setting yet doing this at a school would not only hurt the child it would ruin their lives forever.
