The problem becomes more complicated when we think about older children, especially teenagers who are in the so called "difficult age". Here the problems are best visible at school. In this situation the responsibility for raising children lays on teachers. First they should try to create a friendly atmosphere and try to make classes interesting, in order so that pupils would not only have to but also want to come to the lectures. If this does not work they still can use grades to make them study, and this is quite effective a method. Smacking at school would do nothing good, contrary it would only create the need for rebellion, and the effect will appear to be opposite to what we wanted to achieve.
