Teachers can beat your kids because Florida
Florida county school board votes to resume paddling
Published April 24, 2013 Associated Press OCALA, Fla. – Elementary school principals will now be able to paddle misbehaving students in Marion County. The Marion County school board approved the measure Tuesday, three years after banning the practice. The Ocala Star-Banner reports paddling can only be used in elementary schools if a parent gives a standing written approval once a year. In addition, the principal must receive verbal permission before paddling the child. And a student can be paddled just once a semester. The newspaper reports that before the practice was banned in 2010, Marion County was one of the largest districts in the state that still used corporal punishment. The motion to bring back paddling was made by board member Carol Ely, a retired principal who believes it is a good option for discipline.

I'd prefer they just call me if my kid is out of line and grant me the discretion to paddle my own kid's ass.

Marion county... home of race horses and open pasture... something tells me this would be better served in some of the inner city districts...
|
There's nothing to fear at home anymore...I say beat their ass in school. If kids were getting their ass beat at home more often they might act a little better while in a classroom...

Ah, no big deal, they have to have parent permission to do it. If you don't like it, don't give them permission.

When I do, I hereby give any adult the permission to smack my kid if they are being a little brat and annoying the shit out of you, or doing something otherwise to be considered socially unacceptable. |
I blame baby boomers, the worst generation in American history. It's funny the greatest generation created them.

They endured hardships, but no more so than the colonists who founded our country. They fought a tough war, and won, but no tougher than the wars before their time. But I don't blame people for buying into the idea of "the greatest generation," because they damn sure knew how to give themselves great press: http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/...arade.span.jpg |
