As far as I know, caning is quite common in schools in my place, not in Malaysia as a general. Some parents also use it as a way to discipline their children. In my opinion, it is quite an effective way. Sometimes theoretical psychology and soothing words just aren't enough to handle children. But, of course, things can turn quite ugly if the one caning loses control and turns violent instead. Moderation is the key.

Alot of places have been doing that lately.  I'm not sure if they can do it or not I don't think so.\n\nI read a story last week about a high school student who got suspended from school for speaking spanish in the hallway.

High school, about 1963.  I smarted off to a bully who was pushing a smaller kid around.  I got my face scratched (yeah, it was a guy but I was too fast for him to sucker punch).  He got brused (I was smaller and faster).  Nobody won, we were both kicked out of school for two days.

Oh I like this question....\nI bet when I was 8 my worst sin was this...\nI was told that if I ever got a spanking in school I would get a worse one at home. One day I did not do my homewqork for the 5th time in a week and I got paddled at school. I NEVER told my Mom and Dad. Months later, maybe even a year, we saw my Teacher at the mall and I was about to pass out thinking she would mention the incident. THEY NEVER FOUND OUT!!!!

I wonder why you ask, it should be on the web. I am also kind of worried as I heard of this case of a Filipino that has been there for 3 months and is seeking aid. My prayers are with you in for your finding the answer to your concern.

I had a Korean 6th grader once, worked her butt off on everthing.  She valued school more than air.  I believe the Asian community, in general, has a few "traditional" values that speak towards that; respect for elders, value for education.  It also seems that within a few generations, those cultural values seem to disappear...  too bad

NO.  Students with disabilities do fall under a different "system" of sorts.  But they still get punished and know what is wrong from right.

When I was in college i went into a fast food place after the bars closed with a pair of sunglasses on pretending I was blind.  There was a couple of fraternities in the joint.  A guy came up to me and said "you're not really blind". One of my friends assured him that I was.  He was not convinced and pulled off my sunglasses and stomped on them.  Then the group left.  I just kept staring ahead.  The other fraternity seeing what happened rushed up and asked my friend if I was really blind and he assured them that I was.  They rushed out after the first fraternity and a big fight broke out in the parking lot.  In the mean time my friends and a went out to the car and left. We drove by the fight with me behind the wheel waving. It was pretty hilarious.

I am a Malaysian who live in Alor Star. I know my neighbours but I don't know their names. In the housing area I lived 2 years ago, neighbours are very familiar with each other. I literally know almost everyone.

i saw a guy who was a total noob to martial arts punch the bag a few times with no real technique (pretty normal for someone with no experience). then he tried to jump kick it, but he was an unusually high jumper. his foot kinda slid off the top of the back and caught in the chains that held up the bag. he was hanging upside down from his ankle and when they lifted him out, he had a big red welt on his foot from the chains. the guy never came back. \n\nhe also was talking to a kid that was 15 and had been studying for several years. he found out the kid (a sophomore) went to the same high school he used to go to. he said "yeah, i played football.... if you ever have someone giving you trouble there, just let me know... " \nthat same night, they sparred lightly (no heavy contact, no face contact) for about 4 miutes. the 15 year old (who was REALLY good at what he was doing) was pretty much going as lightly as he could and the other guy just couldnt keep up. he was sweating, out of breath, and missed every block no matter how easy the other guy went on him.

Cane \nTeachers handed out regular canings. Look inside the “punishment book” that every school kept, and you will see many reasons for these beatings: rude conduct, leaving the playground without permission, sulkiness, answering back, missing Sunday prayers, throwing ink pellets and being late. Boys were caned across their bottoms, and girls across their hands or bare legs. Some teachers broke canes with their fury, and kept birch rods in jars of water to make them more supple. Victims had to chose which cane they wished to be beaten with! \n\nDunce's Cap \nPunishment did not end with caning. Students had to stand on a stool at the back of the class, wearing an arm band with DUNCE written on it. The teacher then took a tall, cone-shaped hat decorated with a large “D”, and placed it on the boys head. Today we know that some children learn more slowly than others. Victorian teachers believed that all children could learn at the same speed, and if some fell behind then they should be punished for not trying hard enough. \n\nSee all about it in\nhttp://www.nettlesworth.durham.sch.uk/time/victorian/vschool.html

Suspended for 3 weeks as i led the whole class on a boycott of a particular teacher. He literally chased us round to get back in class. That was more than 13years ago. But i got on good terms with the teacher after the boycott. And i was made Prefect of class. Never had any blotch record though. I went on to University. I'd freak out if i hear any of my kids doing anything like that!

YES i have for self defense. This kid at school who is white always calls himself a nigger. he thinks he is black. well anyway i was sitting at lunch and he called me a nigger so i called him a racist bitch and a pussy then he punched me and well i wanst in the mood to fight and it wasnt that hard of a punch so i just continued eating. he punched me again ok now im starting to get mad people are looking from some of tables around and in my head i am thinking if he punched me agian he is getting it. He walks off. his wigger friend asks me "if he punches you again are you gonna punch him back?" I am not exactly the toughest person in school but if someone realy gets on the bad side of me i can be pretty tough. I told him yes. I continued eating and joking around with my freinds next thing i know he sucked punches me right in the ear. I get up i see him i grab the mother fucker by the back of the head and punch him in the face. Then, still having a grip on him i pull his head down and knee him in the face, breaking his nose. you should have seen the blood pooring out. After that i punched him in the chest and broke one of his ribs. My dad, a Marine told me if anybody punches you to hit them back. I feel i gave him more than enough warnings. And well thats how i got suspended.  i hope you pick as best answer\n\n\n                        THE END

Yeah, I agree that your brother needs to defend himself if he has no other choice. How big are these kids anyway? Go to your brother's school, and look for these kids, warn them not to mess with your brother or you will tell the higher authorities (their parents, teacher or even the police). Don't take it lightly, you've seen what has happened to the world these days, even kids get emotional and kill each other in a fight. Your mum is weak to think that fighting back is bad. Would she rather see your brother coming home every day with a bloody nose or swollen eyes? I don't think so! Why did she not take actions, I don't know, but you're the big sister, and I'm glad you're protecting on your younger bro. Like you said, teach him some self defending techniques, so that he can protect himself when you're not around. Or better still, enrol him to a karate or taekwondo school.

Don't think anyone but the mildly sadistic would welcome a return to the days of the cane. \n\nSchool measures all centre on detentions / suspensions / exclusions model - a pupil can only be excluded if they have been suspended for a certain number of days in total across the school year. \n\nMy family is full of teachers and they all agree in this principle, but say it is too hard to exclude pupils for consistantly poor discipline - maybe you could focus on that as a topic and research some examples locally.

I went to school in an era when corporal punishment was the norm, in private school and public school, and I went to both private & public, What was it like? well of course no one wanted to get paddled by a teacher but, to be honest it was not a bad thing, there was a saying "It takes a tribe to raise a child" which means no one did it alone "back in da day" there was a thing called "respect your elders" which mean you didn't talk back to adults, you did not cruse in their present, you said things like "Yes ma'am, No ma'am" Now-a-days the elders are more afaird of the young which means there's No Respect. does this help any?
