Polish survey: 1 in 3 adults condones beating children, 1 in 4 uses screaming as discipline

A Polish survey by Fundacja Dajemy Dzieciom Siłę finds that while most adults acknowledge children's rights to their own opinion, over half demand absolute obedience, and a third condone physical punishment. This indicates a persistent cultural tolerance for violence against children in Poland, despite legal protections. The findings highlight a gap between stated rights and disciplinary practices, relevant for child-protection policy.
