Alexandria, VA American Counseling Association.Counseling Case StudyThis p aper is all about the discussion of prevalent claw cry occurring within the family. According to district counselors, the incident of frequent twist around among the children should be stopped by providing education and counseling session on corporal punishment and child abuse among the Hispanic and non-Hispanic parents in American societies. This paper then, focuses on the provision of proper education among the Hispanic families where corporal punishment and child abuse is more and more rampant.The foci stresses on the things that the families have to learn regarding the avoidance of abuse and imparts some cultural factors and recommendations that has to be taken into consideration when dealing with Hispanic families. The aforementioned objectives of this paper were expected to be met by the district school counselors in every community. Counseling Case Study Introduction Corporal punishment and frequent beat among children (which is commonly perceived to lead into child abus e) is becoming increasingly rampant in Hispanic and non-Hispanic families.For the parents especially the Hispanic parents, who wish to discipline their children, resort to such sudden negative backing in order to discipline their children. However, district counselors believe that frequent spanking which is a form of corporal punishment found that it does not lead to a favorable result among children in the long run. In so doing, the counselors investigated on the matter and they came up with devising other effective ways of disciplining children and counseling the parents as an alternate solution other than the negative punishment.Body I. Child Abuse within the Family A. Consultation prior the presentation of a need to alleviate child abuse In order for me to determine whether a case of child abuse occurred in a certain family, I need to consult fellow counselors or psychology colleagues to ask for their bet on opinion. There has to be a consensus and a social norm that has to fo llowed regarding the decision whether child abuse has occurred or just mere corporal punishment.Practically speaking, corporal punishment occurs only when there is no severe and intense punishment was executed due to present emotional state of the parent which may be out of anger. B. Things to be learned regarding corporal punishment and child abuse Corporal punishment may be in the form of symbolic gestures of slapping or knuckling in the head (Graciano, 1994). Whereas, child abuse is explicitly the mark of left (physical, psychological, and emotional) damage in the children who received the severe and intense negative punishment from the parent/s.Occasional spanking and its frequency was found by many counselors to lead into the increase of frequency and intensity of the habit. This results to the unawareness of the parents that they are actually executing child abuse among their child or children. C. Cultural factors to put into account when working with Hispanic families Cultura l factors needs to be taken into consideration when working with Hispanic families. As they are known to prioritize familism, they are more probably to induce harm to impose discipline among their children.Moreover, Hispanic families are found to be more likely to abuse their children due to the repressive state they are currently experiencing from anxiety in coping and adjusting within their culturally diverse society. II. Recommendations and Suggestions I would like to recommend to the school counselors that how to work with both teachers and families is to associate household like that of a manager leading his subordinates at work. Similarly, leaders, as counterparts of parents, should not practice negative reinforcement among their employees.Most likely, leaders are expected to promote exacting attitude among their subordinates to increase the employees likelihood to perform their best at work. Same with the family, parents should positively reinforce the positive behavior of their children rather than negatively punishing them to decrease the tendency negative behavior among their children in the future (Holtzman et. al. ) References Graciano, (Initials).
