It is very important for the children to obey to their parents.Parents only know what is right and what is wrong.It is there fore nessecary for the parent to beat and make the child understand the right thng.

that is way indian children are more responsible than western children

Dear Radhakrishnan, Your statement is not correct. In western culture, majority of children don't have respect to their parents because they dont have nay emotional bonds with them. They too adopt beatings to their kids frequently even there are strict laws.In India, we have practice of beating children from very old times and hence we can not think out of this structure.Now the world has been changed and we must adopt changes in our systems / thinking also.Today's kids are very sensitive and if parents adopt beating as punishments, mentally they will go away from them and if any mistakes done they will try to hide it from parents in fear of punishments. This is very harmful situation in their development. Many kids run away from their homes due to this fear.Have you heard of one tenis player died due to beatings by his father in Kolkata ? This is a rare case but beatings hurt kids a lot which parents must think about it.If parents want their kids to lie or hide things from them, let them continue beating. I feel today's generation don't need beatings. Your words are enough to discipline them.
