The Primordial Violence: Spanking Children, Psychological Development, Violence, and Crime

Being spanked for misbehavior is part of growing up for almost all children, in all but a few nations of the world. What explains parents hitting those they love, what effects does it have on children, what can be done to end this millennialong pattern of violent child rearing? Those are the questions addressed by The Primordial Violence. Part I documents the worldwide use of spanking and presents research showing that misbehavior by the child is only one of many reasons parents spank. The chapters in the next three parts give the findings from our research on the effects of having been spanked: child behavior
problems in Part II , mental ability and academic achievement in Part III , and crime as an adult in Part IV . The chapters in the concluding section, Part V , examine trends in spanking, with the emphasis on the social factors that have triggered the movement away from spanking and also the social factors that have obstructed the trend. The concluding chapter argues that changing just this one aspect of parenting is likely to have profound benefits, not only for the children and families specifically involved, but for the society as a whole. A nation without spanking is likely to have less crime and violence and, as the
saying goes, be healthier, wealthier, and wiser..
