@sarahcs True. Caning is a tradition in the UK, and Asia. Paddling seems to be an American practise.

A tradition that ought to be revived.😉

@onewithshoes Sure, let’s encourage violence against kids. Not everyone who hits your kids is doing it for the good.

I was paddled up until the 7th grade, that's when I decided it wasn't going to happen any more. The teacher wanted to paddle me for being less than 30 seconds late to class. I told him it wasn't going to happen and he sent me to the principle, he wanted to paddle me and I told him the same thing, "not going to happen". Well then you will be suspended from school for 3 days he said. I took the 3 days. The first of several suspensions I would eventually take.
