School Paddlings Needed?

Nobody has the right to hit me at any school. paddle is out of date and kids won't take licks just so they can be hit for stuff they do. My parents don't hit me so why should some teacher do that to me at school. They have no right to do that. if a teacher hit me I am going to hit her back quicker than she hit me. My parents said if any teacher even touched me they'll have them put in jail. I hate school. I hate licks even more. So teacher take you're stick and hit your own kids but not me. The poll stinks. No way do so many believe in the paddle like the polls shows. I voted 100% NO!! NO!! NO!! NO!! Throw it away! No good man!!

Hi son,

I can see from your attitude that your parents are really making a good job of teaching you to be a selfish, ignorant young man that believes you are all that exists in the world. You obviously have no respect for anyone but yourself, and will be looking no-doubt at spending most of your life in prison, or doing some mindless, boring job somewhere and watching all your dreams drift away as you grow less and less satisfied with your lot.

Have you still got the brains to ask yourself why there is so much mindless violence in this world? Why so many potentially good and useful young people like you will spend your early adult life jobless and hanging around on the streets, instead of seeing that if you stop thinking that at 17 you know it all, and try making something of yourself, you will stand a much better chance in life.

What does C.P. do for a boy liike you? It teaches respect, obedience, correct values, self-worth, and it gets rid of that almight chip you are already carrying on your shoulder, with such PRIDE!!

========== In Reply To ========== This young man has clearly never accepted any kind of discipline in his life. He wants to do as he likes. Thats fine by me but does he really think the wide world he is entering is going to give him any chance at all? No! This is because personal strength comes from good discipline. Indeed he will finish at the bottom every job list. What is worse once he is 18 nobody will care one jot.

In truth it's probably too late for him now. However what a change from the past when there was good discipline in schools and you called the teachers Sir or Miss. In the home too you learned repect and good manners. This young has none of these qualities and makes the perfect case for restoring the cane for girls and boys in all schools in US and the UK.

He has shown us what happens when you give children a soft child centered education. It brings out SELFISHNESS, FOOLISHNESS, DISRESPECT, AND CREATES USELESS CITIZENS. Multiply him thousand of times and it is clear why we have on our streets crime, drugs, and boozed up kids.

Hmmm... you don't seem to make any other sense than just trying (key word trying) to sound smart

(Ok, tell me how believing it is not right for one's self to be hit makes them selfish? How does that mean that that person doesn't care about anybody but themselves? Because someone believes they shouldn't have to go through physical pain because of their opposing views with a teacher it makes them lazy? In line for an awful job? Unable to follow their dreams? disrespectful?)

(There is violence because there is no violence to teenagers? Why so many.... such as YOU will be be on the streets and jobless? That kinda sounds like a low blow for someone trying to sound intellegent and make a good point. Who says that because this person believes they aren't worth being hit that they will not make something of themselves? You call them selfish AND say that they don't care about themselves, don't you believe you contradict yourself?)

(Hmmm.. it seems to me that self-worth would be the LAST thing to come out of being hit, and weren't you just complaining earlier in your message he had too much self worth? You even called him selfish? And how does obedience teach one to be independent and able to go get a job as an adult? Respect... if you hit me, I wouldn't respect you... not to mention he didn't seem to have a sickening amount of pride to me in his letter)
