Ilm o Amal
Written by Teachers' Resource Centre

When it comes to bringing up and caring for children, there is perhaps no other issue that incites as much heated debate and elicits as much intense opinion as Discipline and Punishment. Should one punish a child? Or should one discipline the child? What is the difference? And what are the effects of each of these approaches? These are just some of the rudimentary, but emotionally charged questions that this debate throws up.
In a world where some deem sparing the rod akin to spoiling the child, while those at the other end of the spectrum think saying ‘no’ to a child is anathema, we at TRC believe that it is time to clear our heads and discuss the issue again. And so for November and December 2011, we will be carrying two articles (instead of our usual one) on Discipline vs. Punishment. Written by TRC-IECE Students these articles will benefit anybody who is raising children or is involved in any other way with them and often feels stuck about the healthiest approach to take when guiding children.
