People protested against this announcement





Since this announcement of the minister, people have started to oppose it. They say that sometimes it is necessary to beat them to improve their children. The law has also been opposed by Lei Qiang-ja, the head of the parent association. Qiang-ja says, "I will beat my children, Regardless of why I have no punishment for this."





Another guardian says, "Our child is ours and their responsibility is also ours, the government has no right to interfere in the domestic affairs if the child does not obey his parents and we will not even be able to beat him, then how can we improve them? "
