A big Turn-around for France

The 55th country to ban all corporal punishment of children has just joined. Congratulations France! Here is what they said in Parliament: “Education through violence can only create more violence in society. It also leads to failure at school, illness, suicide, anti-social behavior and delinquence”.    This ban has worked so well elsewhere, ushering in more peaceful societies. We will see a very different France in a couple of decades.
