ArmInfo. In Armenia violence is still considered as one of the key
methods to educate children, Save the Children Country Director in
Armenia Irina Saghoyan said today while presenting the children's
rights protection situation in the country.
She said that surveys in Lori, Tavush and Gegharkunik regions have
shown that violence against children is widely spread in Armenian
families. Some parents still believe that physical punishment is the
most effective way to educate their children. But violence is present
not only in family but also at school.
"Violence against children is present in all countries and Armenia
is not an exception," Saghoyan said.
The surveys have been held in the framework of a grant given to Save
the Children by the Council of Europe and Open Society Institute.
