: i'm not a teacher, just a day care provider but i don't want to beat anyones kids, sepecially my own. i'm sayin that when the threat of school discipline was removed from the schools, most teachers gave up on ever controlling the classroom. most that i had never controlled the room before, but now they really have no hope. a lot of kids needed the threat of a paddeling and nothing more.
never really realize that a person in a teaching position doesn't have that authority until like grade 4 or 5 and by then if they don't know how to conduct themselves in public well.....back to the issue of bad parenting.....
The is a world of difference between letting a threat linger over their heads and actually doing the deed.
