The practice of hitting children teaches them to become hitters themselves. Extensive research data is now  available to support the direct correlation ....26.... corporal punishment in childhood and violent behavior in  the teenage and adult years. Virtually, all of the most dangerous criminals ....27.... regularly threatened and  punished in childhood. Punishment gives the message that "might make right," that it is okay to hurt someone  smaller and less powerful than you are. The child then feels it is appropriate to mistreat younger or smaller  children, and when he becomes an adult, feels little ....28.... for those less fortunate or powerful than he is,  and fears those who are more so. Thus it is difficult for him to find ....29.... friendships. Children learn best  through parental modeling. Punishment gives the message that hitting is an appropriate way to express one's  feelings and to solve problems. If the child rarely sees the parents handle anger and solve problems in a  creative and positive way, he can never learn how ....30.... that himself. Thus inadequate parenting continues  into the next generation.

TEXAS 

A Texas middle school is under fire after students say they have been banned from speaking Spanish in class.  The students say their principal announced the rule last month over the intercom. Inside the walls of  Hemptead Middle School, a language controversy is brewing. “There's one teacher that said, “If you speak  Spanish in my class, I'm gonna write you up,” 8th grader Tiffani Resurez says. Four students say their  principal's announcement - banning them from speaking Spanish in class - has given teachers and fellow  students a hall pass to discriminate. “She was like, „No speaking Spanish.' She told me that. I was like,  “That's my first language.’ She said, „Well, you can get out," fellow classmate Yedhany Gallegos says. A  letter sent home by the superintendent says, "Neither the district nor any campus has any policy prohibiting  the speaking of Spanish." The four students feel that the statement from the superintendent has not been  made entirely clear that their school. "People don't want to speak it anymore and don't want to get caught  speaking it because they're going to get into trouble," 6^th grader Kiara Lozano says. Parents, like Cynthia  Zamora, believe the school is not getting to the root of the problem. She wants to know why the "No  Spanish" announcement was ever made in the first place. "I was very surprised that she would even go to  such lengths," Zamora says. Many students at the school grew up speaking Spanish at home, and they  say it often comes as second nature when they're talking to each other at school. “I'm not scared. I'm gonna  keep speaking language. That's my first language, and I'm gonna keep doing it," Lozano said. The principal  has been placed on paid administrative leave while the district investigates. A spokeswoman for Hempstead  Inder School District has released a statement saying, in part, “The district is committed to efficiently and  effectively resolving this matter with as little disruption to our students and their learning environment as  possible."

A newborn baby can see, hear and feel. By the age of five, a child can talk, ride a bike and invent imaginary  friends. How does this development happen? We don't understand the way language, thinking and planning  develop very well. Now scientists are using new technology to ‘see’ into children's brains. And they are  discovering new information about the way a baby's brain develops. 

A study in 2010 showed that the experiences a child has in their first few years affect the development of the  brain. It showed that children who received more attention often had higher IQs. The brain of a newborn  baby has nearly a hundred billion neurons. This is the same number as an adult's brain. As they grow, a baby  receives information through the senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch. This information creates  connections between different parts of the brain. At the age of three, there are a hundred trillion connections. 

One experiment looked at images of babies' brains while they were listening to different sounds. The sounds  were in different sequences. For example, one sequence was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern 'A-B-B'. Another  sequence was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern 'A-B-C'. The images showed that the part of the brain responsible  for speech was more active during A-B-B' patterns. This shows that babies can tell the difference between  different patterns. This experiment is interesting because sequences of words are important to grammar and  meaning. Compare two sentences with the same words in a different order: John killed the bear' is very  different from 'The bear killed John.' So babies are starting to learn grammatical rules from the beginning of  life. 

Researchers also know that babies need to hear a lot of language in order to understand grammar rules. But  there is a big difference between listening to television, audio books or the internet, and interacting with  people. One study compared two groups of nine-month-old American babies. One group watched videos of  Mandarin Chinese sounds. In the other group, people spoke the same sounds to the babies. The test results  showed that the second group could recognise different sounds, however the first group learned nothing. The  scientist, Patricia Kuhl, said this result was very surprising. It suggests that social experience is essential to successful brain development in babies.
