Spanking needs to be reinstated in school

[Anton Bruckner]

I don't want to sound too much like a Dipsy, but I was shocked an appalled today after watching that link with that girl throwing a tantrum. A good spanking would have calm her down, and make her consider her actions

Like that's gonna happen. You can't even touch a kid in school much less on the derrier. It would be called sexual abuse and child abuse.

Maybe we should reinstate school at home - that would solve the spanking problem, partly!

Although spanking would help in government schools, it is merely draining the sea with a bucket, putting a bandaid on a tumor. Meg's advice is correct.

I have mixed feelings about spanking in public schools. Not that I'm against spanking (I use it often myself). I'm just wondering, should anyone give the child a spanking besides the parents?

We still spank in school - home school.

Now, about the others: Spanking was a part of the discipline in the school I went to and in the community in which I was raised. There is a big difference between those growing up with me and those who are now coming out of that community. A difference in the negative direction. Corporal punishment by those other than parents still required significant parental involvement, and always should.

Spanking needs to be reinstated in church too (and I'm not talking about the kids)

That video was hilarious.

School at Home...spanking by parents! Problem solved (on the "who spanks issue). I have a problem with school spankings...only because I've seen it used as abuse towards children that didn't deserve it and the unfairness of some of the kids being on the sacred-butt-list. Parents should do the spanking. (coming from a former nanny...nanny finds alternate methods...momma and daddy got to apply the swats as they saw fit when they got home)

does anyone have another link to the video...you can only watch the tape IF you have AOL (I don't and won't)
