Annotation
Matreatment is a result of mostly intended abuse of children by their closest people, especially parents. The extreme way is killing the child. But, it is not only a one-way act from the abuser´s part, it is a special interaction of all participants.
Sexually abused children issue starts to reveal itself more openly in the last years in the Czech Republic. But the sex issue is still thought by general public to be a tabu and it is not discussed with children. Nevertheless, it is necessary to talk about human body with children. We have to explain to the child that his or her body belongs only to them and noone can touch it in the way that makes them feel embarassed or even disgusted.
Punishment is an integral part of human history. It always used to be the means for punishing breaking the discipline. The aim of this workshop is to show the participants its historical, social and cultural context. The role of corporal punishments in our society will be discussed as well as the limits of corporal punishment and corporal abuse. Experts in children psychology (Z. Matějček, J. Dobson, etc.) will present their point of views. There will be an interactive discussion on prepared proposal to make corporal punishments illegal.
