Schools still paddling kids?

I certainly remember my butt gettin' torn up a time or two in elementary school. The principal had a paddle with holes in it, so she could swing it faster. :yikes:

My grandmother was the kindergarten teacher. I got plenty of spankings from her in class in front of everyone with a wooden paddle. I haven't killed anyone, yet.

there is no general rule across the board for handling children. I have twins and have to take completely different approaches in teaching them right from wrong. I am an advocate of corporal punishment if the child's personality dictates it, but it is no panacea.

It starts at home. If parents let their kids act like delinquents with no regard to authority, then tie the hands of the educational system they in trust to raise their child. That system is broken from Point A.

It's not always like that. My dad would whip the piss out of me when I did stuff wrong and then I would get grounded from everything too when I was younger. I learned not to f up at home. But then when kids got to school they can get away with anything with no real punishment that is going to do anything to make them want to stop. Maybe it was just the crappy school system I was in. It was run by a bunch of morons.

I'm with you on that one. My parents spanked me growing up and I never felt "abused" or whatever. Of course they never did it out of anger. They would send me to my room and let me think about it for awhile. Now that I think about it, it was probably as much for them (so they weren't mad) as it was to torture me.

They always gave me a talk after and asked if I understood why I was spanked and all that stuff.

Exactly. I got spanked when I needed it but those times were few and far between. I learned that if I screwed up I paid the price. The system worked.

I disagree with you somewhat. I was spanked as a child. Not beaten, but spanked when I deserved it. And I am far from an aggressive person. I do believe that child abuse can lead to more child abuse. There is a huge difference between spanking and child abuse.

All I can say is that when I did watch juveniles in lock up (as my sister still does) a lot of these aggressive kids were the ones being abused by their parents/etc.Go by any mental health facility and ask the professionals their or better yet volunteer to help and then maybe the picture will be a little clearer.

Spanking is not even in the same park as abuse. I doubt these kids are in juvy because they got spanked.

you hit the nail on the head. Alot of "those kids" are in juvy because they DIDNT get spanked. Mom and Dad werent around or they were run aways, or they were raising themselves for some reason. Parents dont always do right. Hell, even white collar parents mess their kids up. Too much money leads to drugs, alcohol ect.... white collar crime not only refers to adults, but it should apply to the upper middle class or high society figures' kids. I teach therefore I know. Poor kids are not always the problem. Rich kids are not little angels. Its a happy/screwed up mixture of both. But dont worry folks, we as educators will raise em for you. Feel free to NOT pay us what we deserve and on top of that , raise 10 kinds of hell when we swat little Johnny when he calls a co-worker a Motha F_____. No worries. Sorry for the rant yall.

Teaching kids would be very rewarding but I do understand the downside of it. All the peripheral stuff.
