‘Thinking outside the box' (July 31)

There are millions of reasons why a mother might hit her child. It is not ?always the mother's fault? and not always the child's fault. ?You cannot compare one mother to another and one child to another. ?
Riaz Badshah
When a mother beats her child, there is surely love behind it because mothers never want their children to be bad. A mother's love is incredible.
Moosa Bhat
This teaches the child that violence is the way that adults deal with things that they don't like. Children learn that violence is okay.
Michael Abbott
Whenever a mother hits her children, it is a part of disciplining them. With children's behavior nowadays, they need a little spanking to learn a lesson.
But when a mother hits her child the pain she feels is threefold, because as a mother you are the one who sacrifices for your children.
You almost gave your life giving birth to them. A mother's love is unconditional. In fact, no mother would want to see her child becoming a problem for society.
Leonor Zamora Robide
A mother never beats or punishes her children unless they have done something wrong. No? mother would dare to do that without a reason.
Mir Mohammed Ali Khan
It depends on the motive behind the beating. A mother would never, never dare to beat her children without any reason.
Mohammed Abdallah
I am a person who does not believe in disciplining children by hurting them physically or emotionally (public shaming, insults, etc.).
Although I realize that something must have gone wrong, I still think she should not have lost her temper. There are many ways to discipline your children and hurting them should not be a part of disciplining.
Noor Vazeer
Hitting a child is never right; it's bullying. No one has the right to hit a child; there is always another way of teaching right from wrong!
