First blog

Hi! :)

In my second blog I would like to share my experience about writing outline, narrowing my original topic and finding a thesis. I decided to write about quite controverse topic- corporal punishment on children. There are many different opinions in the society and I would like to build my own one. I am, as a future mother, very interested in this topic, because the question how to educate the child so that it becomes a good person and a proper member of the society will play a very important role in my life.

There are also quite enough sources about this topic, but they are mostly opinions of individuals on various discussion forums. I will have to search more intensively and find more academic sources, researches, statistics and psychological studies. As a future lawyer I will also deal with the legal aspects of this topic, especially with the international and European regulation.

It was not that easy for me to write an outline, because I still don’t have all information and sources I need. It might appear an interesting question during writing my paper, so I hope it will be possible to add it to my outline.

If you know about any sources or authors dealing with this topic, please let me know, I would very appreciate it.

Wish you a very good luck by writing and see you tomorrow! :)

Hi Dominika,

I find your topic very interesting and it very much concerns me as I have a four year old brother. At the moment he is always trying to test his boundaries. I personally think that there is no excuse for punishing children in such a way that it seriously affects their health both mental and physical. But sometimes you have to show children their boundaries so that they know what is right and what is wrong. It is in the human nature to try to expand those boundaries and therefore one has to find a way to mark them to kids.

At the moment I am researching a lot online but I haven't found that much relevant sources. So I guess it means that we have to keep on searching but keep in mind - you are not alone
