I have to clarify what I said. Children do not have rights in terms of getting corporal punishement from parents, teachers and adults. Comparing children from Afraka and Afrakan children from amerikkka is difficult however, because in Afraka, most children come from 2 parent households, even if the husband has more than one wife, his prescence is seen and felt.
The manliness of Afrakan fathers, the rites of passage, the village trully raising children is prevalent in Afraka. Boys know their roles, girls know their roles. During festivals and celebrations, men are present amoung their children, quite often the boys are dressed like their fathers and the girls like their mothers. Much much respect is given to the father, mother, grandparents, aunts, uncles. Traditions passed down for centeries exist and are taught to the next generation.
All of this functioanal living causes most families not to have to inflict corporal punishement on children. Of course children will be children, but the peace is trully there. Most men in Afraka have good memories of their fathers, having worked with them or being trained by them in some manner. The families are basically in tact.
Now compare that to AA in amerikkka. 70% single parenthood. Fathers, brothers etc, not there, in the criminal justice system, gay, crazy, and the list goes on. Disfunctionality in our families is the rule of thumb in amerikkka. Beatings don't make things better either, quite often worse. Funtional loving families rarely exist. I work for a school department. When I see the father present it is odd. It was designed this way and unfortunately we maintian this horrific system because of the vestiges of slavery.
