finally this law has been made in india whereas developed countries like US and UK it was made eons back, there thrashing kids is against the law there are other methods like grounding, curfew, taking away his playtime to discipline a child.... looks like india finally is taking its strides to become a developed country in the sense of legal matters as well.... what we need now is more laws to curb the physical abuse by cops and other laws stringently followed to strengthen the fundamental rights of the citizens.

Mr Aftab, It is there in our society too. So far it is confined to street children, orphans, and very poor people. Root coz here is poverty and illiteracy. But, in developed countries, the situation is different. By following their culture, we would be spreading meance to nook and corner of the society, instead of eradicating it. Try to recoginize the strength of our system my dear brother.

Do you realise or have you seen the kind of lives those kids live in countries like US or UK. Its such a shocker to see these kids behave like hooligans without any control from any one whatsoever. I am sure if u saw a child of 8 smoking and a gang of toddlers and teenagers behaving violently and unsocially, yhou'd like to rethink on your opinion.
