<p>This essay shows firstly the transcendence of educating and raising children, sanctioning inappropriate and unacceptable behaviors, this indicates establishing limits and punishments for the child, with the aim of guaranteeing good men in society, without this meaning violence, everything otherwise. Likewise, it is proposed that the antisocial behaviors observable in society and in other cases the emotional fragility or lack of resilience of adolescents and young people are consequences of the absence of punishment for inappropriate behaviors of the child, and in the worst cases derive from the use and abuse of corporal and psychological punishment. Secondly, a different look at corporal punishment is sustained as a last option, that is, the ideal would never be to apply the correct corporal punishment, since there are previous techniques to punish the child when he misbehaves, however, in cases of “ difficult children ”it will be necessary to use corporal punishment, and if this extreme option is reached, it must be applied responsibly, that is, sporadically, measured, ceremonially and using reason; It is also mentioned in detail that there are harmful factors for children and curiously some of these negative factors are accepted by society in general. Finally, as a reference, the thoughts of Montaigne, Locke, Rousseau are considered, the psychological theories of Melanie Klein and John Bowlby are also considered, in addition it is considered research works and also the ideas of psychologist authors, related to the subject.</p>
