Using corporal punishment
- Beating
Description
Using corporal punishment involves the deliberate infliction of physical pain or discomfort as a disciplinary measure to correct or control undesirable behavior, particularly in children or subordinates. The essential action is to deter misconduct and enforce compliance through immediate, tangible consequences. This strategy aims to remedy behavioral problems by establishing clear boundaries and reinforcing authority, with the practical intent of maintaining order, discipline, and adherence to rules within families, schools, or institutions.
