| Subject: Spanking children leads to mental illness: study Fri Jul 21, 2017 2:58 am | |
| A new study has made the connection between physically disciplining children and mental illness later in life.
It's an age-old parenting question - to spank or not to spank? - that is beginning to be answered by most family psychologists and academics with a resounding "no".
A study on the effects of spanking released by the University of Texas and the University of Michigan shows that the more a child is spanked - defined as an open hand to to backside - the more likely it is that their behaviour will become defiant, anti-social and rebellious.
