To address Hong Kong’s child abuse cases, NGO resources on positive parenting show corporal punishment alternatives
(南華早報 2023-05-29 10:17:00)A woman in Hong Kong surnamed Lam* still remembers being hit with a cane as a child. Now, as the mother of a two-year-old, she has vowed never to physically punish her child.
Instead, she has taken every opportunity to learn positive parenting techniques.
Last Monday, the mother in her 30s left work early and rushed to North Point where an outreach van was parked. Operated by the Hong Kong Family Welfare Society, the vehicle visited different districts last week aiming to raise awareness of the well-being of children.
Lam, who lives in Lam Tin, had learned about the event on social media and was excited to take part.
