• Gender -- Ian Davis, 20:01:55 04/19/07 Thu
  I believe that a free personality is defined as one who is not held back by any restrictions. I don't think traditional sex roles contribute to the development of a free personality. I think of traditional in the sense of women in the kitchen and men in the factories. That way of thinking is outdated and a sign of incompetence. Both genders should have equal opportunities, but they should still play to their strengths, whatever they may be.

  A truly free spirit can make their down decisions outside of the set standard. Traditional gender roles may have a positive impact on a truly free spirit because the individual may be be all the more encouraged to do their own thing when seeing how everyone else is so controlled by the norms.

  I feel that a truly fee personality is one that has no limitations as to what they are able to do. No one is making them the way they are. A free personality will have people that influence it, but in the end, the person themself should be able to act and be who they feel comfortable being.
  I feel that traditional sex roles do contribute positively to the development of a free personality because people interact with the opposite sex on a day to day basis and most people use their experiences to shape who they are.

  A truly free personality is a person with the free will to have any personality and to be whom they wish to be and are free to make their own decisions. Traditional sex roles do not not help develop free personality because they are a set role with boundaries nowadays their are many different forms of sex roles and that freedom helps develop truly free personality.

• Gender -- Matt Steiff, 09:36:41 04/19/07 Thu
  A truly "free personality" is unlimited in every sense, and the potential to become, without regard to convention, is emphasized singularly.
  
  I think that gender roles, which are now nothing more than gender stereotypes for the most part, are pointless and outdated. If one defines him or herself according to gender roles alone, then that person will, more than likely, waste the rest of his or her life, unwilling to venture beyond the space socially allotted him or her.
  
  Gender is a confine in this sense.

  I believe that a truly free personality is a personality that is developed without feeling the pressure of following what we have come to know as a traditional sex role. I think that traditional sex roles does contribute to the development of a truely free personality. When someone has a free personality they can express themselves in any kind of way.

• Gende Roles -- Jessi Massey, 08:21:00 04/19/07 Thu
  I believe that traditional gender roles inhibit the development of a free personality. Why? Mainly because the traditional gender roles portray females being subservient, house-cleaning, baby-rearing, stay-at-home women while men get to be the bread-winning, golf-playing, masters of their domain. These views of men and women are so restrictive that, if we were to make our children adhere to these standards, we would be squashing out any bit of individuality that they may have ever exhibited.

  A truly free personality is a person that does not have to deal with the tradition role of what a female or what a female role are in life. Although I was taught the difference between what female should do and how they should act. Things like that can put a negative impact on a truly free personality because they feel that they are only allowed to do what their sexes can do which is not totally correct.

  A truly free personality is a personality that is developed without feeling the pressure of following traditional sex roles. It is almost impossible for someone to not be aware of these sex roles in our society today because we are constantly being reminded of them. Therefore, i believe that sex roles do not contribute positively to the development of a truly free personality.

  I believe that truly free personality is the ability to develop your own personality/identity without bias or pressure from outside sources. In today's society, gender stereotyping is common. With such stereotypes as well as pressure from outside sources to fullfill a certain role, I believe that we are uncapable of truly free personality.

  Traditional sex roles contributed negatively towards the devlopment of a truly free personality. How can one be truly free if previous thoughts/notions have already been learned. I do believe that a person can eventually become truly free ,but after time of learning to think by independently. I consider myself to be free ,but not truly free because my parents have taught me things since birth that I think are just natural thoughts.

  A truly free personality of a person can develop from traditional roles of males and females but I think the likelihood is to occur more in non traditional roles. There wouldn't be a defined way and would be open to personality they'd develop.

  When speaking of a truly free personality(the person who you really are) I beleive that your traditional sex role does contribute to your personality. As people we are always trying to live up to certain standards that which effects our personality, not attentionally, But we do tend to let tradition influence the development of our sex roles.

• my moral stage -- Jessi Massey, 20:34:43 04/05/07 Thu
  I believe that I am in the Level 2 stage 3 or 4 and a half. I believe that I am in between these stages because I have a very good understanding of what is right and what is wrong, I put a high value on trust and loyalty, and I like to promote and preserve order whenever possible; but I also believe that what the "right" decision is can vary depending on the circumstance. When I read the prisoner example story, I had a difficult time making a decision on what to say because I believe that knowing what crime the man committed plays a huge part in determining whether or not he needs to go back to jail.

• Moral Development -- Karen Jenks, 09:44:00 04/05/07 Thu
  I believe that I am currently in stage 4 but moving toward stage 4 1/2. I do believe that the law is the law. Killing of any kind should be punished, whether it be an unborn child or an elderly lady overcomed with pain. The government laws are important to me, but I believe that the laws from God (the Ten Commandments) are the ones I follow the most and none of them should be broken. On the other hand, I believe that every possiblity should be considered. When doing the Escaped Prisoner exercise, I could not reach a decision because all the facts were not present. Everything needs to be considered when weighing the options.

• Moral -- Aimee Baumer, 11:02:17 04/04/07 Wed
  I think I fall somewhere in Level III Postconvemtional. I don't necessarily feel that values rights and principles should transcend the law for that could lead to mass chaos. The law's purpose is to maintain a system. However, I believe that there are always exceptions to the rule. What is right for most may not be valid to certain individual situations. I think respect for other's beliefs is of the utmost impotance.
  I also don't think that laws and values can always be considered together. I may speed down the road but don't believe that this is as severe as shoplifting. I tend to be very philosophical and reflect internally which sometimes leads to moral justification.

  I believe that I fall under Stage 3 of Level II Conventional. It is the mutual interpersonal expectations, relationships, and conformity. I am at a stage in my life where I want to be trusted and looked upon when someone needs to be cared for. I am that loyal friend, the one someone can turn to and be able to trust. I tend to be viewed as the motherly figure.

  I believe I am somewhere in the level III postconventional stage of moral development. Principle transcends law, and my morality is internalized – experience leads me to decide as I decide, and nothing about morality is necessarily black and white. I think a great deal before I react, morally, as things are not often as they seem.
  
  Descriptions from other levels also apply, but not as thoroughly.

• Intelligence and IQ Testing -- Miracle Smith, 07:55:43 04/03/07 Tue
  IQ testing, in my opinion cannot prove how smart a person really is. In this matter, you have people that either know the material or they do not. An IQ test, just like all the other staardized tests, does not make a person smarter than anyone else. Because a person can have book sense, but when out in the real world, they have no common sense; Vice-versa. But if a person does good on the IQ test, that's ood for them. I also feel that everyone is intelligent in their own way.

• IQ tests -- Elizabeth Morris, 15:03:29 04/02/07 Mon
  I do think IQ tests can be very helpful to find out a child's ability and also to find out if they are learning on a higher or lower level than average. But I also think that a person's ability should not be measured solely on an IQ test. There are many people like myself you do poorly on standardized tests. So IQ tests are very useful but can also be harmful if that is the only thing a teacher has to go by to find out a child's ability.

  Although we use these test in very different ways, I feel that IQ test should not be given. You never know what to expect of a child as they can surprise sometime. A lot of children have potential to do just about anything so I think that we shouldn't allow these test to determine if the child will make it or not. Testing to see if the child is gifted is fine but the others I think we should do away with.

  I think intelligence test, such as the ACT and SAT, are important indeterming whether or not someone is capable of "making it" in a certain school environment. Some students need more attention than others. This attention can be found in community colleges and others alike. This can estimate the speed of learning and can help teachers develope a certain teaching plan for different individuals

  Intelligence test, in my opinion, are not good. They seem to only label people on who's smart and who's not. An I.Q. test only tells how smart they are in a book sense. It does not test their ability to do something, but moreso how to do it.

  Perhaps, one of these days, intelligence testing will reveal, undeniably, that such testing tells us so very little that it must become altogether obsolete.
  
  Coming generations may begin to think so differently that existing criteria used to gage intelligence will utterly fail to meet the mark.
  
  In order for any of the above to occur, intelligence testing must continue, which, in my mind, is a great reason for it to do so.

  I want to go on record and say that I am not for or against IQ test. I just do not see how taking an IQ test can determine how smart a person is or if they will succeed. I mean I see people everyday who are exactly like the man described in the story. IQ test should be designed to test you in all areas and determine if you can succeed or not. People are successful in many ways in today's society. We have self made millionaires who are rich and have never taken a single course in college nor recieved a degree. According to IQ they would most likely be considered unseccessful.

  Although they may not accurately measure one's intelligence, intelligence tests are useful because they can predict those who may have the intellegence to meet a certian standard. In other words, they can predict who, when given the right environment,tools etc. have the abiltity to suceed.

  I think that the one thing that is good about intelligence testing is that it really does break down certain things and does give some type of factual information to colleges and jobs that one might be trying to be placed in. Although I am not a fan of tests like those I do agree with the outcome of some of them and that they do serve a purpose in some way.

  I think that Eating Disorder should be a topic that we should talk about. people get sick all the time from a disorder like that. people should know that eating is a good thing. I hear so much about many differnt people with a eating disorders. so why not talk about it. It will help every one out.

  Unfortunately, one of my oldest friend's sister fell victim to Bulimia a few years ago. She's fine now, but she did it to herself mainly because her mother is overweight, and her other relatives aren't what Cosmo would call skinny. It is important to understand what healthy looks like, and how society's view of beauty is not what healthy is. Being healthy is beautiful, not being able to count your ribs. I am glad it is being discussed in class, it is necessary.

  I think it is very important to cover eating disorders in this class.

My best friend has fought an ongoing battle with bulemia over the last few years so I am curious to learn more about te disorder.

  I think eating disorders is a very important subject to cover in this class, especially since many of us will be working with kids who may be doing theses things to themselves. I have never known anyone with an eating disorder, but I do know how lightly it is some times taken, as girls joke about starving themselves and such. It is important to know when it isn't a joke anymore.

We never know when something like this will happen to one of our loved ones. Learning all the we can to prevent the problem will benifit us all in the long run.

  I feel that an eating disorder should be brought up in this class during this chapter because we are talking about the physcial development of people. When you have something as such as an eating disorder that can greatly have a negative effect on your body. Especially, when it is mostly seen in adolescent, and as your going through puberty, trying to find yourself. This topic chould be discuss therfore you can know the consequences. I have never known anyone to have an eating disorder before, and no i dont have and stories to share.

  As far as for what we have covered in class so far, we have covered the basics. Meanwhile this is Lifespan and deals with things we cope with in life. But it ma be interesting to learn more about it. I had a cousin who used to eat and then throw her food up because she didn't like real food and didn't want to get fat. I, myself have not had any experiences with eating disorders, other than I'm addicted to Oreo Blasts @ Sonic.

  Eating disorders can cause many problems. People who suffer from eating disoders are either too skinny or too fat. Therefore,I think that we should cover the topic but not spend a lot of time on it.Because this is Lifespan and not biology, there is nothing teachers can do to pervent it. However, if you are teaching a course about it, or want to become a doctor or a nurse, then learning about eating disorders will be more important to you.I have never had or know anyone who may have had an eating disorder.

  It's very important to be educated in the hazards of eating disorders. Many of the problems stem from adolescent females not understanding the full implications of their actions. My girlfriend's former friend (I promise it's not my girlfriend) suffers from bulemia nervosa. It's a major problem that she deals with, and no matter how often asked to stop, she continues on.

As a member of the U of M Pom Squad there are many different eating issues that arise because in order to dance at games we have to weigh in. Maintaining the same weight is not always easy especially if it is not a weight you are naturally at. This can cause girls to try and lose their weight using unhealthy means.

  Eating disorders are becoming more of a problem. With mainstream media saying that skinner than skinny is in, girls and women are filling the pressure the be thinner than thin. I believe that the subject of eating disorders is very important to discuss in a classroom. It is a way to allow others to know the signs of eating disorders so that they may be able to help a friend out. Also if someone with an eating disorder is in the classroom at the time, the discussion might be enough to move them forward to getting some help. This is a very sensitive topic in the world today, but I think that it needs to be brought out in the open more often.

  As many people in this class will go on to work with children and adolescents, this topic is even more necessary to cover.
  
  Clearly, eating disorders are becoming a major problem, and they seem to develop earlier and earlier. Sedentary lifestyles are promoted by all kinds of things now, such as computers, video games, and television, which only make matters worse for someone with an eating disorder.
  
  Unfortunately, not everyone realizes that dedicating hours of attention to any of these things is not a very good idea. Some are stronger than others, of course, but kids, for instance, often don't know when or how to be strong in this regard - they need parental supervision, which many aren't getting, so of course they're making poor decisions, overeating and never moving.

  I believe it is very important to discuss eating disorders. Within this society you run into people that are secretive about there lifestyles and maybe they want to stop but dont know how to stop or where to get help. By discussing eating disorders within classes the person will recieve the information on how dangerous it is and how to get help for there problem. I personally donnot know anyone that has an eating disorder. I have not had an eating disorder before. Thats scary and I donnot plan on ever having an eating disorder.

  Eating disorders are something that a lot of people struggle with daily. I believe that it is a very important topic to be discussed. A lot of people suffer from eating disorders and may not even be aware of it. Our society today sets an image of how we think the "public should look" and people try hard to fit that image and may do so by not eating or eating so much that they get sick. This does not allow our body the proper nutrition and therefore affects our physical development.

  Eating disorders are very important to cover in this class since we are discussing human development (and eating disorders can greatly hinder our health/development)and since most of us will be in teaching/coaching/nursing positions in which we will be affecting kids who may battle with this. Whether any of us admit it or not, I do not think there is any girl who has not struggled with the beginnings of an eating disorder, or atleast come close to one. When I was younger I had a very unhealthy obsession with being too skinny, it could have very easily overtaken my life (it had begun to) but I saw how it affected my friends so much and I hated it. Even though it is an uncomfortable subject, I think we all need to get over our trying to pretend like eating disorders are so seperated from us, especially when considering how great an influence we are all going to have since most of us will have occupations working with young people.
  I think the best thing we can do is set positive examples for these kids starting with ourselves.

  I think the discussion on eating disorders was very important. Eating disorders are a very serious thing. When I was younger I had a problem with a anorexia but at that time I was going through so many things. I felt as is my life was completely out of control and nothing at all made since. Not to give an open invitation into my life but my sister was very sick at that time and she needed a heart transplant. I would look at her and she was so thin and so everything I was not. It sounds said but I was young and the only thing I could think about was the little sister should actually be smaller than the big sister. News flash, I was not. I was in junior high and we do not even want to know what problems I was going through at school on top of the fact of dealing with my personal life. My mind frame at that time zoomed in on my weight and I just wanted to disappear. I was 13 and 125 lbs and I remember getting on the scale one day and I at was at 98 lbs and food when I did try eat, mostly when someone noticed I was not eating, it would cramp my stomache horribly. 98 lbs was a great weight for me but it sparked more problems. I looked awful, my neck was long, and my face thin. I am just thankful I am still here after that. I just thought I would share that with you. So yes eating disorders are a very serious issue because so many other problems stem from that.

  I believe bonding is very important in the begining of infancy for optimal development, however it is not always neccesary. Children and parents can bond even later in childhood. A family I know adopted a little baby girl from China when she was about 7 months old. She was never held in orphanages in China, so when her new mother held her for the first time, she didn't want to let go. They almost had an instant bond, even though they weren't blood related.

  I beleive that bonding is essential to the growth and development of a child. If the child does not bond, he/she will be faced primarily with social/ motor skills and will basically live a life of confusion in my opinion. I have met people who have never had bonds with their mother/father and this causes for the most part a problem in their life. Most parents bond for the most part with their children during the first six weeks of "infanthood".

  I think that bonding for mothers and infants is not essential at birth. Parents who adopt children are able to bond with their children just as well.

  I think bonding is essential for families being close. But before there is a bond there must be a love for one another. Then the bond when fall right in place. All mothers should bond with their babies. I'd say about the 3rd or 4th week there should be a really great bon, because they should be used to the baby by then. But also I feel that mothers should be bonding with the baby before it gets here. You can do so by reading to the baby or talking to the baby, etc. A great bond with your baby will ensure a great bond once it gets older, and they won't stray from the parent.

  Bonding with your child is an important part of parenthood for sure, but I do not believe that bonding must, without fail, happen within the first two weeks of your child's birth. Bonding is a very individual experience, therefore it will occur at different times for different people. As we discussed in class, bonding between a baby and adoptiive parents is absolutely possible and both parents and children can have an extremely healthy relationship. So, as I see it, while bonding is imperitive to a good parent-child relationship, there is no set period in which bonding must occur in order for the relationship to be strong.

• Prenatal-Bonding -- Gabrielle Reisner, 22:58:31 02/14/07 Wed
  I think bonding in the early stages is possibly more for the benefit of the mother than the child. It is obvious that children have a bond with their birth parents no matter what age that bond may begin. I say it is possibly more crucial for the mother to form this bond early because she is the one who has to provide, have strength, etc. and I imagine it would be very hard to do so in the early stages of parenting (especially with postpartum depression) without such a bond.

  I think that bonding is important between the parents and their children. A mother does not have to bond immediately with the infant because they somewhat already bond when the child was in the womb. If they do not bond right off top does not mean that the child will face optimal development throughout life. My father was always busy with work when I was little but we still have that father and daughter bond that no one can break.

• Bonding -- Kenneth Fleming, 21:21:18 02/14/07 Wed
  Bonding is vital in the development of infants. Mother/ infant bonding is very important and very common, but I believe father/ infant bonding is more important. The reason being is because the majority of times, that mother/ infant bonding comes naturally.It is a motherly instinct that creates the bond between the mother and infant. When it is time for the father to bond with the infant it is more of a challenge that most men face. They really do not know how to really go about the bonding process. So for a man to bond with a child shows that he really cares about the infant and knows that his bonding with the infant is also just as important as the mother/ infant bond. As far as personal experiences my father was always working during the infant years and was able to develop a bond with me after the fact. Although bonding at infancy is important, it is never to late to bond with the child that a parent has so much love for.

  I believe that for optimal bonding, the earlier the better. The keyword is optimal. It can still be done, but I believe that for the strongest bond, it should be done early. A baby's smile is simply his modeling of his mother. The baby begins learning as soon as birth happens. That's proven by the amount of change he/she undergoes.

  I think that it is very important for a mother and child to bond but I must also take into consideration that bonding takes time. A child and a mother do not always bond right out of the womb it takes time and adjustments due to the parent and childs situation. I mean if you are a first time parent it could be difficult for you to adjust to being a parent for many different reasons. As stated above I think it is very important for a parent and child to bond from the child is out the womb but if it does not happen then it is okay because a parent still has time to bond with their cild.

  Bonding is an important part in a child's life. I believe that bonding will effect the child's relationships in the future. If a child can bond properly with the mother and father, then I believe that relationships in the future will also be healthy. On the other hand, if a child doesn't have a healthy bond with a mother or father or anyone for that matter, then the child would probably develop unhealthy relationships in the future. I also believe that bonding should occur as soon as possible, but it is not necessary to bond right away.

  I was suprised to learn that there was no critical time period for bonding. I say this because when my son was born, skin on skin contact was highly stressed. I breastfed him so this was easy and I think extremely helpful to both of our dispositions. Those first few weeks are so intense...joyous but scared and exhausted...so knowing how important that bonding was helped me to keep going. The example given of adopted children corrected my assumption however.

  I really don't know if mothers and infants absolutely have to bond immediately. If it happens, great, but I think there's probably a decent amount of time for this to occur in the weeks and months following the child's birth.
  
  It seems that the ability for a mother and infant to bond so soon depends almost entirely on the child's disposition.

  I strongly believe that immediate bonding is important and a strong aspect of the mother/child relationship. I would not go as far as saying it is optimal though. I think that even though the child will not remember those first few aspects of his or her life that the emotion their will have lasting effects of both the mother and child.

• Corporal Punishment / Assingment 2 -- Ashley West, 20:07:07 02/06/07 Tue
  http://www.religioustolerance.org/spankin3.htm
  
  I am for Corporal Punishment within the school system.
  Spanking is definately needed within the schools because children growing up in this society has little or no respect for the adult society. Within the schools teachers are spending more time sending a child out the room or writing a child up,rather then handling the student right then and getting on with the lesson.This I feel will have an affect on a student that gets disciplined by the teacher because its takes them out of there norm of just getting a sheet of paper or being sent to the office.
  I feel there is certainly a difference when a teacher spanks then when a parent spanks. When a teacher spanks a student for being disruptive i think the teacher is trying to gain order within the classroom.I also believe that when a teacher handles a student within the classroom, it shows other students what will happen if they become disruptive. When a parent spanks a child sometimes its because they are trying to promote discipline within the household.I dont think there is a difference between a teacher and a nurse. Both are trying to get a job done and have to take certain measure to achieve sucess. I feel that because of the two settings,the form of corporal punishment should be handled differently.

  So I realised that, while my last post had a good link to follow, it didn't answer any of the questions that were asked for this assignment. Now I will tell you that, since I do not agree with spanking, that there is absolutely no difference between a parent, teacher, or nurse spanking a child. Force should not be used as a punishment because, as I said before, it encourages the use of force by the child as well.

• Corporal Punishment -- Patrice Nieman, 11:01:37 02/06/07 Tue
  (http://www.stophitting.com/disathome/factsAndFiction.php)I believe that corporal punishment is not in any way helpful in shaping a child's behavior and should not be used. I'm not sure if there is any difference between parents spanking their children and teachers spanking their children. However, the only difference i might see is that the parent is responsible for his or her child therefore they have more right than a teacher would but this still does not make it right.

  Spanking children is not always the answer to every thing.
  Do I belive in Corporal Punishment,Yes I do. There are ohter ways to handle a child. you can talk to the child. Some kids just need that extra time with the teacher. However, there will be a time that you would have to do Corporal Punishment. There are many ways you can handle kids than Corporal Punishment.

  http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/spanking_poll021108.html I don't personally agree with corporal punishment in schools. I think if a parent chooses to spank (not beat) his/her child then it is left to him/her. I make my decision based on how I would feel if someone were to spank my children that I didn't know... I wouldn't like it. I think these things should be left to the parents

  I personally would prefer methods of other punishments that are not corporal. It may do some children good however all I feel that physical harm isn't what we should teach when showing wrong or bad behavior they have choosen to act upon.

  My opinion of corporal punishment is somewhat bias because I was product of corporal punishment. I refuse to say that I enjoyed receiving corporal punishment, but I do believe that it is an effective instrument in terms of correcting or deterring unwanted behavior. As an aspiring teacher I do not want to administer spankings to my students, I feel as if that should be a job for administration. This allows corporal punishment to become a process and not an immediate reaction. As far as being a parent, I would most definitely correct my children with a good old fashion “beat down.” So yes there is a difference between parents and teachers spanking children. As far as nurses go, I did not know that corporal punishment was needed in their field of work.

  Corporal punishment is really unnecessary.There are other ways to discipline a child, such as time-out or negative reinforcement.I would not use corporal punishment often with my child, only as a last resort. There is a difference between parents spanking their children and teacher spanking, the fact that I am a mother and soon to be teacher, I do not want anyone hitting my child, nor will I hit other people's children. No one knows your child like you. So no, there is no difference between teachers and nurses in regrad to corporal punishment, and there should not be a difference, you should not put your hands on other people children, even if you see them as your own children.

  Corporal punishment is necessary in public schooling and also in parental discipline. I don't mean beating a child senseless, but I think that a good swat on the seat of the pants never hurt anyone. However, teachers and other adult guardians need to be careful in how to they come across with this kind of discipline as they do not want to inflict extreme harm upon a child.

  This website supports my reasons for saying that corporal punishment is a must in Memphis City Schools. Children have only proved that time-out and other punishments are not enough for them. They are still out of control and I think that they should be spanked at school, because obviously the parents aren't on their jobs. And if a child is put out of class or on suspensionall the time, how can they learn. With a simple spanking (when necessary), they can simply return to class and continue learning, without getting far behind.

  The website backs me up on my position of corporal punishment. It shows kids that they can beat up on kids younger than them when angry. When a child is spanked it makes them scared of the authority figure and makes them not want to go to them for guidance.I am so against spanking that I will not even spank my own children.
  As far as nurses or anyone else, I don't understand why anyone would want to spank a child.

  For toddlers and young children who do not fully understand how to reason, spanking is the only form of punishment that they completely understand. When they become old enough to understand, it should be used in extreme cases, but never used as a small punishment. It should also come with a "talk" about why it was necessary.

  This website supports my position against corporal punishment. Spanking teaches children that it is appropriate to react physically to disappointment
  Physical punishment may also cause feelings of fear, anger and mistrust towards those they expect to keep them safe such as parents and teachers. I was spanked as a child and the effects were detrimental. It led to me being insecure and defensive and affects my interpersonal skills today. As far as a nurse is concerned, I don't see why one would ever play the role of diciplinarian.

  I believe that corporal punishment/spanking is not the best way to punish a child or anyone for that matter. I believe that there are other ways to punish children. Some examples are grounding or taking away a car. I also believe that corporal punishment should not be used in the classroom. Time out and not recess can be as effective if not more than corporal punishment. Corporal punishment can also inflict emotional pain as well as physical pain.

  I absolutely believe in corporal punishment. There are children that do not appreciate one saying stop and putting them in time out. I went through all my years of school and I know that when I was disruptive and failed to obey my teacher, I desreved the spanking that I was given. I do not feel that teachers should spank the children, but administrators. Parents should make the decision if they want their children spanked in schools or not. It is stated in the Bible to train a child in the way they should go so when they grow old, they will not depart from it. I feel that that statement applies to teachers as well.

  I realize this is an older article, but I like what it mentions. Banning corporal punishment removes another form of control from the adult. Today our society notices few differences in children and adults however I think it is important that the child realizes he is under the adult. In order to maintain the boundaries set by corporal punishment, it is necessary that it be enforced by both the parent and the teacher. The child can not have mixed signals of his/her boundary lines. The punishment must be consistent to produce the desired behavior from the child. In the case of nurses practicing corporal punishment, it is my opinion that the two completely separate issues. The role of a teacher is one of great impact which may affect the child’s life more than their own parent. Generally, the role of a nurse is concerned with the child’s physical health while the child is subordinate to the charge of their parent/guardian. The nurse should look to the child’s parent or guardian as to how to discipline the child. It is not the place of the nurse to train them. The primary role of disciplinarian is the parent within the child’s life. However, when the child is in school and under the responsibility of the teacher, it is the teacher’s job to discipline the child. The teacher and parent should use only the amount of discipline necessary to get the desired behavior from the child. Corporal punishment is a useful tool, as long as it is not abused.

• spanking -- Jessi Massey, 06:59:31 02/05/07 Mon
  In my opinion, spanking is never good for a child. Spanking teaches children to be aggressive whenever somebody does something wrong to them and does not encourage the use of words instead of force to solve problems. Spanking also makes a parent or authority figure seem frightening to a child instead of a source of guidence like older people should seem to children. When spanking is used, it breaks the bond that parents and teachers have with the child and makes it harder to rebuild trust with the child.Here is a website that backs up my claim that spanking is a bad choice for children:

  I feel that spanking in schools, should not be permitted for teachers usage, because some teachers might not have the child's best interest at heart. Parents should only have that right if they feel that spanking it is a part of discipline they use for thier child/children. Also you do not need physical discipline for a child to understand, right from wrong.

  I think corporal should not be used in schools. I would not use it when I become an elementary school teacher. I think there is a big differences between parents spanking and teachers spanking. I do think parents have the right to spank their children. I think that there is a better way to deal with corporal punishment whether it be teachers or nurses. Some parents don't believe in spanking their children so they don't won't any teacher spanking their children either.

  I would not spank my child to hurt him/her, but to demonstrate my unwillingness to tolerate unacceptable behavior. I would not spank my child in hopes of seeing tears in his/her eyes, but to jolt the child into understanding that bad things - spanking representing a generally negative outcome - can happen, at any age, to someone who is acting foolishly.
  
  I believe that if anyone should be permitted to spank a child, it is that child’s parents. However, I would personally seek other methods of non-physical discipline before laying a hand on my child.

  Personally, I beleive in Corporal Punishment. This is the way in which I think all children should be punished. Most times, we sit back and allow our childrent to do whatever they want, but I think that we shoudn't allow this to happen. Maybe this is the reason for the out-of-control crime rates that our children are constantly increasing. Children should be punished corporally and I see it as the only thing that graps their young minds. In the state of not wanting to do the other behavior because of the consequences it will hold. There are certain "moral" limits that should go along with the punishment so that it is not out of hand. The above site also gives great info on why children should be punished.(a religious perspective)

  I agree that corporal punishment should be banned. I will not use corporal punishment because when I was in school getting spank from my teacher it left a feeling that will not go away and I do not want a child to feel the same pain that I felt growing up in school. There is a different between parents spanking a child than a teacher for the fact teachers are taking spanking to another level. When a parent spank their child the child knows why they are getting spank; whereas, when a teacher spank a child the teacher will not give the child a reason why they are getting spank. I feel there should be a different between teachers, nurses, and parents spanking a child not just teachers and nurses regarding corporal punishment. I feel that it is a better way that teachers, nurses, and parents can handle corporal punishment towards a child.

  I agree that corporal punishment should be banned in school for the fact students will be affected by this later on in life. When students are getting spank by their teacher the students begin to lose trust in their teachers because they see teachers as someone they can trust and depend on when it come to their future. Therefore, teachers should use better reinforcement for the students.

  Above is a website about corporal punishment and why it should not be allowed in schools. I agree with denying corporal punishment in schools. I do not believe that anything good has come from corporal punishment. None of the schools I ever attended when I was younger ever allowed it. I believe that it would reinforce a negative outlook on school for children. Being verbally punished at school, for some, is humiliating enough. I do believe that their is a difference between parents "spanking" a child and teacher "spanking" a child. The child knows that the parents love them and why they are spanking them. Their is more of an emotional connection between the parent and child. I believe that there are many other affective ways for teachers as well as nurses to punish a student or younger child without resulting to corporal punishment.
