Do you think corporal punishment should be reinstated in schools?

Why or why not?

Absolutely. It would cure a hell of a lot of the bratty behaviour in school.

@AirForce687 Research shows those methods only work for kids who behave
And I truly love the adventures of working in a high school. Seems like you need to learn patience.

@Eeyore122 i had enough trouble keeping control of my own English class as a prefect once, and that was only for two hours because the teacher had fallen sick and with only a dozen kids in the room (it was a Special Needs English class)....

@AirForce687 those are the most fun. I am an aide for students with special needs....

@Eeyore122 Funny how some parents are paranoid of drag queens, but the idea of a teenage girl, bent over a desk, and paddled by a male principal does not raise eyebrows.

@AirForce687 It never worked when I was in primary school in the early sixties. The same set of hooligans and bullies were always getting the dap. It never had any effect on them.
