I also have a theory to put forward: Countries which have outlawed, abolished or discouraged CP such as Sweden, Austria and Germany, have a history of being LESS reliant on physical discipline being more "together" compared to the countries which have NOT taken action against it (UK, France and Russia, for example). These can be subdivided into two groups: Pro-rod-sparing and anti-rod-sparing. The former includes countries which have taken no action (legally) against CP of children but is actively encouraged in society and community (UK, France and Russia to name a few), while the latter includes countries and cultures which, while in a grey area legally, DISCOURAGE such measures and utilise them as a final desperate course of action (China, Japan and Korea to name a few).<br /><br />If you HAVE to use CP, then use it on an adult or someone who can defend himself, not a child or young teenager.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503866255319422123.post-14145947830734073122011-11-01T06:38:35.376-04:002011-11-01T06:38:35.376-04:00"Using corporal punishment is just that CORPO..."Using corporal punishment is just that CORPORAL PUNISHMENT.
