This lesson can lead to domestic violence. Punishment both frustrates children and gives them a model to imitate. Parents who use force to discipline are showing children an unequal balance of power based on size and strength. Spanking isn’t an effective means of changing behavior. The effects of spanking are immediate but usually short term. Spanking can teach children to seek revenge. It teaches children to hate, fear, and avoid the punisher. Spanking is useless as children get older. Viral Meningitis There are two types of meningitis (me-nun-ji-tus): bacterial and viral. Bacterial meningitis is the most serious. Viral meningitis is an infection caused by a virus. The infection affects the covering of the spinal cord (called the meninges) and the brain. It is more common to get viral meningitis in late summer or early fall. It most often affects young children. Viral meningitis is spread by coughing, sneezing, sharing utensils, and by not washing hands after using the toilet. Symptoms may include fever, stiff neck, red rash, headache, excessive sleepiness, and sometimes nausea and vomiting. Breastfeeding can help protect a baby from meningitis because of the antibodies passed to the baby from the mother’s milk. Most people who get viral meningitis recover fully, but a doctor should always be seen to diagnose an illness correctly and determine what treatment is needed.
