Child Discipline

           Discipline is how children learn right from wrong, acceptable from unacceptable. Providing appropriate discipline to children is one of the most essential responsibilities of a parent. However, child discipline differs from each culture. In general, the children discipline begins with the parents at home, but sometimes people other than parents can discipline a child. For example, generally in Africa and particularly in Benin when a child misbehaves outside the home, an old person is able to punish him even though it is not his relative. As a result, this way of discipline allows the child to respect all people, not only his parents. That is what I can call social discipline. In contrast, Americans are unable to discipline their children because they have no authority over them. Mothers and fathers acquired a hands-off about their children, and anyone can’t discipline child of other. Else, he or she will be summoned in front of the court. One example is this video: https://www.facebook.com/aissatou.cisse.9212/videos/424068810548/. Social discipline is a good thing that any country can allow because providing consistent and positive discipline helps children grow into responsible adults.
