... Juvenile Delinquents and Boot Camp

I think spanking is a good option. I would like to see more parents use it. I agree that the number of juvenile offenders would shrink if parents used effective discipline at home.

I have mixed feelings about corporal punishment in the schools, but I think it could be useful in certain situations.

I would also favor allowing administrators or high level staff in juvenile detention facilities and boot camps to administer corporal punishment.

And then there's always judical corporal punishment. I've talked to a couple of people who received it overseas as teenagers, and they claim if was harsh but effective. Maybe that's something we should consider in the U.S.

========== In Reply To ========== Boot camp is a good option for some who lack structure & discipline. It may be the route to turn the guy around. Before the need for JD detention or boot camp why not get back to old fashion home & school discipline. When I messed up I got swats at school and a second paddling or belt whipping when I got home. Is a good spanking, when deserved, another option?

I have mixed feelings about schools using corporal punishment (cp). If parents did their jobs--i.e., disciplined their children well--I don't think cp would be necessary or desirable in the schools. However, since many parents don't adequately discipline their children, I think that school administrators should be allowed to administer cp in some situations.
