him but he kept hold tight, like a dog with a bone. We were fighting and arguing over it for about 2 or 3 minutes. Then all of a sudden he let go and I went flying through the air. I then ended up landing on the concrete out side the back door and smacking my head on the floor. The pain rushed to my head and I started to feel dizzy. It felt like some one had put my head in a vice and tightened it slowly. There was no blood but there was a huge bruise on the back of my head. I started to scream as loud
meals. The retarded son does not eat his meals at the table with his family. In a description of the retarded son, Porter writes "He didn't whine for food, as the other children did, but waited until it was given Him; He ate squatting in the corner, smacking and mumbling" (597). When Mrs. Whipple's brother comes for a visit, Porter writes "He wouldn't come into the dining room, and Mrs. Whipple passed it off very well" (599). For appearances sake "Mrs. Whipple loaded up a big plate for Him first, before
through the use of smacking is not a solution. According to Phillips and Alderson refers to, “lawful parental violence against children, from the ‘tap’ to the ‘belt’ and beyond” (1). Smacking as a way of having control over the children has no long term positive effects, even though, some would argue that it should not be criminalized since they see smacking as a way of disciplining children.

Smacking is good for children Smacking or hit children is not the right way to teach them how to correct their mistakes. Let me ask you a question: Do our children deserve to be hit or being slapped under any circumstances - even for issues concern their safety? "It is not fair!" Smacking, in most of the cases, is absolutely a type of unkindness, cruelty and humiliation, incurring in several, may be prolonged, mental health problems. Not to mention smacking or blaming in front of sight of other
Next thing I knew I was literally soaring off the edge. Sliding down the hill head first, what a rush. Not knowing when I would stop or if I would ever get back on my feet. I see pure pain in my path and feel like just giving up.While sliding, I began to spin myself around with my feet facing down the hill. As I begin to plant my ski boots into the ground, I immediately realize that that was a bad idea. Before I can even blink, I flip through the air like a gymnast, except not as graceful, and feel
all, I am here today to talk to you all about an issue that has taken the community by storm. My reason for writing this speech is because, I think smacking towards children should be illegal. Firstly, I believe that the smacking of children is out of order and should never be used as an act of punishment. They might be infuriating and naughty but smacking them shows abusive nature. Some people use this as a form of punishment as they don’t know any better as this was how they was bought up by their
I firmly believe that the smacking of children should be banned by law. For me, there is no real debate in this matter. Many parents abuse the right to smack their children, which can lead to severe consequences. Children grow up copying and learning from their parents from a young age. If parents drink and smoke, their children may want to copy them. If parents smack, their children will think that it is acceptable to be violent and will be more likely to smack their own children in the future

The most frequent physical punishment which is categorized as sensible include the age of the child and the form of punishment. The negative impacts on smacking a child can
like a clear definition in the law, not a total ban. I agree, the best way forward has got to be through re-education for all of us, teaching us how to mould our kids’ behaviour without violence. So instead of campaigning for a total ban on smacking that would be impossible to enforce, turning thousands of us into criminals and solving nothing, let’s campaign for better education for parents. This job has no formal training, so if we forget the fact we seem to think we should just know how
Some people find food chompers attractive and enjoy watching food being tumbled in a persons mouth while listening to the very delightful smacking noise. Others have enjoyed the fact that chomping on their food has provided extra food for their cats and dogs due to food splurging out of their mouths; but in all actuality the leftover food remains on the floor and will result in a different
vision of florida is when he is describing the weather. "The sound of rain smacking down on my concrete patio about ten feet away from the typewriter, rain beating down on the surface of the big aqua-lighted pool out there across the lawn.... rain blowing into the porch and whipping the palm fronds around in the warm night air" (Thompson, 108) This excerpt show Thompson describing the beauty of Florida, the "rain smacking" which can relax and ease ones mind.

physical damage and the emotional problems that might happen to a child.

Punching, slapping, smacking, kicking, and hitting are physical actions that can inflict terrible pain on the child’s weak body.

sat and ate and laughed. I crawled further into myself and listened to my sister’s slurps and smacks of her lips and her mouth-filled voice tanting me. “It’s good—so good.” That night I dreamed of the spider who eats its mate, slurping and smacking, until nothing is left. In the morning, I was soaked red and my sister didn’t wake. We buried her two days later, clad in her Sunday dress with the squared buttons running down the middle and the blue shoes she hardly ever wore. My mother never
Hitting, fighting, screaming, ignoring, unnecessary touching, are all examples of child abuse. Child abuse is more than bruises and broken bones. While physical abuse might be the most visible, other types of abuse, such as emotional abuse and neglect, also leave deep, lasting scars. (Smith, and Segal). There are four types of child abuse, physical, emotional, sexual, and neglect. Physical abuse is any type of injury a child may receive, such as scars, bruises, and other visible injuries, which can
