Iron Fist

by: Enzo Aguilar Sr-C
Debate on whether or not it is better for parents to punish their children with an “Iron Fist”
I believe that when you scold a child, you do not use physical pain, because they can take it against you or focus their anger towards their younger siblings. So my stand on the debate is on the side where they choose not to scold using physical punishment.
Despite people’s bad experiences in the past with their own parents, but time changes, such as the form of physical punishment and also do the people. There are parents whom go teaching their kids about the famous “TLC” also known as Tender Love and Care. It is true that there are many ways in teaching any child from right and wrong, but there is no official way to do it. Everyone has a different method, I just think that physical pain is bad because it not only can scar the child emotionally but can scar them physically as well.
If a child is punished physically for doing something they did wrong but the parent(s) act as if nothing happen then i believe the child will forget the pain and the punishment method because physical pain is only temporary, while emotional pain can last forever. Some people can hold a grudge against their parents their whole lives. Just like most people say, it is easy to punish while forgiving can almost be an impossible task. In my opinion, that is why God is always forgiving us for our sins, he can do the impossible easily.
