Were there many fights in your high school?

There were fights breaking out fairly often in mine it seemed. Wasn’t gender specific either, plenty of girl on girl fights occurred just as guy on guy fights did. A couple occasions of a guy hitting a girl, but not as much.
Have times changed since then (mid-90’s)?

There was the odd dust up in the hall, but in those days if you were caught it was into the principals office, bend over and grab your ankles. There wasn’t any thought to counselling or calling your parents. One could only pray one’s parents didn’t hear about it!!

@Quimliqer Like I said in my post, it was the cane at my school. I agree, it was a quick and sharp consequence for breaking the rules and as you say, none of the counselling or 'let's hug a tree' crap. As for parents finding out, oh yes, that was a terrible fate.
