Spare the rod ,spoil the child.

I think that it is acceptable for parents to cane their children if their true intention is to educate them.However, there are some black sheeps around, who cane their children just to vent their frustration. i am against these parents, whose caning are definitely not justified. Some children,as a result of caning, grew more motivated to find other ways of committing foul deeds and covering them up.
If caned too regularly, the child might grow up with suppressed rage and anger management issues. I feel that a better alternative to caning is sitting down and talking to them. This will lead to another issue. If a child could get away with bad behaviour by pretending to be remorseful, and apologising profusely, then sparing the rod would encourage such behaviour. That arrogance would come about when they realise that no matter what they do, they won't ever face punishment.
