OMG, what kind of a question in this? And what type of parent would beat their child for doing the right thing? Moreover…kids that age (under 5) are so innocent…that they don’t know the difference b/w right and wrong…and they will sometimes “imitate” or “follow” the older kids…because in their younger eyes…the older kids are “cooler” and they may even seek the approval of the older kids. Even in this situation…I don’t think that a parent should beat the child…because he/she didn’t know better. Plus, in some cases…beating can develop resentment in a child…and the child might avoid something out of “fear” rather than an understanding that what they did was really wrong.

“Other, if so what?”…naturally the “other” option (for many parents) would also include things like explaining to their child (as simply as possible) why the behavior is wrong…AND…ensuring that their child does not interact with that playmate in the future…AS WELL AS…possibly informing the parent of the child or another authority figure such as a teacher.

some desis will and do beat their kids, hence i added that option,

how would u explain in simple words? because u almost always get a why in reply from the child as they like to ask questions
