Do You Consider Beating Of Kids Correction Or Child Abuse?

A few days ago, an aggrieved parent complained about a school teacher that slapped 4-year-old child because the little girl did not get her sums right. So bad was the slap that the little girl in nursery two had the teacher's fingers marks on her face.

The man had to get the teacher arrested and it only took the intervention of church elders before he withdrew the case. The case of viciously beating beating kids by teachers, housemaids and even parents have been on the increase and many frown at the practise. But then, the holy book talked about sparing the rod and spoiling the child.

On Morning Teaser today, we ask: do you consider beating children as correction or child abuse?
