Contains Corporal Punishment
This song mentions beating a minor as a punishment. We don't think it's so bad it shouldn't be sung, but consider having a conversation about this when teaching it.
Corporal punishment of children was traditionally acceptable in Ukrainian culture and its depiction in this song is not egregious, so we do not think singing this song should be banned. However, there is an abundance of research showing that beating results in numerous negative effects in children. Beating minors is never acceptable and should not be normalized.
