“Child Rights - Loss one, Impact on all” In 2006, the Committee on the Rights of the Child released a statement declaring that corporal punishment is a form of violence that should be banned in all contexts. The International Day to #EndCorporalPunishment on 30 April is an important, global moment to advocate for protecting children from violent forms of punishment - in all settings. Many countries have banned any type of corporal punishment, including spanking. Sweden became the first country to ban corporal punishment in 1979. Since then, other countries such as Germany, Japan and lasted country is Mauritius becomes 65th state that have made corporal punishments children illegal in all setting. Any Corporal Punishment violated Children’s Rights not just only physical or their rights to health, development, protection, education but also their mental and values as physical integrity, human dignity and freedom from torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment. To Improve Outcomes to End Corporal Punishments for Children, we need “Public Policy” to banned the physical punishment of children in all contexts and settings together with running “National Parent Education and Campaign” around the topic. Throughout the implementation of Education and Campaign strategies, we need to addressing on the positive change as outcome of adult’s believe and social norm on this issue seriously. - A Itsaraporn 30.04.2024 - Credit Photo: Verywell / Nez Riaz
