Final Writting Project: Rough Draft

              I feel that parents shouldn't hit their children by any means. Many parents do it to "discipline" them or to "punish" them for their mistakes. But, that is no way to treat a child even if they do something wrong. Parental behavior like this, can alter a child in so many different ways without the parents even knowing. It can harm the kids psycologically, make them more aggressive and will grow hatred towards the person harming them. Included are also the medical problems.
             To start off kids can be psychologically effected. kids might start to view things from a different perspective and are not the same as before. Their behavior and attitude can rapidly change for bad than for good. Kids may not be as socially active in school or with their friends. They might even become depressed and those are signs of them being emotional and mentally harmed. Ther self-esteem may also be at an all time low during these "punishments". Some examples of how a child can be harmed is when they are isolated, terrorized or neglected.
            Another reason why parents shouldn't hit their children is it will make the child more aggressive. It can led the child to be more aggressive towards their classmates and elders. Soon they won't have respect for anyone around them. They might start to get into more trouble at school for trying to hurt other children. When they throw a tramtum they will act in a more aggresive way by trying to hit the parents or throwing all of the stuff that comes into sight. If the parents are being agressive the child is going to mimic everything the parents do beacause parents are supposed to be role models to kids. Kids ar always wanting to do what their "mommy or daddy" does and they want to be just like them. Unfortunatly if parents don't behave how they should, neither will the children.
            Also, If parents hit children the child will start to grow this hatred towards the parent. They will feel hate for what is being done to them and to the person that is doing it to them. Slowly they will begin to demonsrate the slow growing hate within them. Resentment will also happen and a difference in the child will be noticible quickly. The child will try to distance themselves from the parent that hits them.
           Along with all of these bad consequences come medical problems. Soon bruises and scars will appear all over the child This indicates that the parent is now not just "punushing or diciplining
" their child but full out beat their child. This indicats that the parent or guardin has just gotten out of hand and went way too far. Each year many abused children have to go to the hospital because of injuries inflicted on them during punishment. Some of the children don't make it out beacause many of their extreme injuries are fatal.          
         All in all, the person many innocent kids used to look up to as a role model will look nothing but an abusive person to them. Hitting kids will bring life long consequences and life changing situations into the family.The effects of such as the medical, psychological, agessive and hatred problems can follow them the rest of their life and might just play a role in the course of life they will take which is either their parents way or their own.
