Reasons Not
to Spank
The use of physical force as a means
of discipline can have many negative
effects. You shouldn’t spank because:
t/7 Spanking teaches children that they
don’t have control over their behavior.
Lack of inner control can block children’s
ability to solve problems and make
decisions on their own. Spanking can
teach children to rely on others for
control of their behavior. Then children
are more likely to let other events and
people influence their actions rather than
using their own resources.

that violence or force is a way to solve
problems. 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.
