The most important work we can do, individually and globally, is the healing and prevention of traumas so that we don't pass them down to future generations. This blog is a working tool to contribute to this good work.

How does the domestic violence against spouses issue sit in your country?
Under what conditions is it considered permissible to hit or strike another adult? Under what circumstances is it permissible to hit or strike someone else’s child? Do we only care when violent actions occur where others can actually SEE the action take place?
When does hitting someone small and helpless to fight back operate outside the sphere of being outright bullying?
Do you have a link to the 25 countries that have banned corporeal punishment?
‘Charm offensive’ — social change — I greatly admire your work! I will certainly post any excellent links I discover over here, and thank you so much for your connection over here!
Is it legal in your public schools for staff to smack children?
Thank you very much for this info, much appreciated!
I think the flip side of these statistics is that parents who tend to spank-smack their children are lacking in many, many skills — both as people and as parents.
These lacks also contribute to these negative outcomes — the hitting probably being just one aspect. Children with parents who DO NOT hit their children probably have better emotional control-regulation, behavioral control-regulation, overall better well-being in the world.
I am interested to see what the discussion of this massive research paper you gave me the link to has to say about the range of inadequate parenting skills that go right along with spanking.
Also, interesting — there is research now in the USA that shows that emotional-verbal abuse has just as much negative life long affects on children as hitting — or all other forms of abuse. As hitting ‘goes underground’ the verbal-emotional abuse is becoming more prevalent.
