Is it illegal for parents to beat their children?

Whether it is illegal for parents to beat their children depends on the situation. Parents or other guardians are forbidden to commit domestic violence against minors, and it is forbidden to abuse or abandon minors. Parents who commit violence against minors, which constitutes a violation of public security management, shall be given administrative punishment by the public security organs according to law.

To what extent is it illegal for parents to beat their children?

1. If the parents beat the child and the child's injury constitutes a minor injury or more, then the parents' behavior is illegal.

2. Whoever intentionally hurts others' bodies shall be detained for more than five days and less than ten days, and shall be fined between two hundred yuan and five hundred yuan;

3. If the circumstances are relatively minor, they shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than five hundred yuan.

4. Those who cause minor injuries or more constitute the crime of intentional injury, and shall be investigated for criminal responsibility according to law.

The impact of beating and scolding children on children includes:

Causing psychological trauma, being prone to violence, easily rebelling in adolescence, hiding the true self, becoming inferior, etc.

1. Children who are beaten and scolded will form a lot of psychological trauma. Children who are often beaten and scolded will turn their initial love for their parents into resentment. If there is no outlet for this emotion, the child will not be able to give back to his parents, and the child will turn to attack himself, showing it through physical symptoms, or suffering from mental illness such as depression and anxiety.

Children who are beaten and scolded will treat others like this. Many perpetrators of school violence grew up in violent families.

3. Children who grow up are prone to rebellion in adolescence. At a certain age, children grow up slowly, and their parents become weaker and weaker with age, so children will have serious rebellious psychology.

4. Children will hide their true selves. When they grow up, they will find that their parents will appreciate some of their behaviors and criticize some of their behaviors. Gradually, children will develop a "fake self".

5. Beating and scolding will make children feel inferior, such as feeling that they are not good enough and that they are not worthy of being loved.

It is not right to beat and scold children often. It is recommended to give children more reason and specify rules instead of beating and cursing.
