DEAR EDITOR,
The June 2008 newsletter of the Global Initiative to End All Corporal Punishment of Children reported that “Costa Rica is about to join the list of countries that have achieved equal legal protection from assault for children by prohibiting all corporal punishment.
The law completed its way through Parliament on 21 May, and is now awaiting presidential assent, which is expected to happen very quickly.”
(http://www.endcorporalpunishment.org/pages/pdfs/newsletters/Issue03-June2008.pdf)
This brings to 24 the number of states to have banned all forms of corporal punishment of children in all settings. One hundred and three nations now prohibit corporal punishment in schools.
