Do some schools actually spank?

It's still allowed, as far as I know, in about 15 US States, mostly in the South.  The only ones I know for definite are Texas and Mississippi.\n\nHere in the UK it's been outlawed in all schools, public and private, for ten years or so.

I liked the answer on bullying, and I fully agreed on it. But, teachers can be bullies too.\n\nI read in a parenting magazine the other day that 42 states still allow spanking! Yeah, and whether or not YOUR child has had this happen to them, a girl in a public school system in Nebraska (I think it was Nebraska) was paddled with a board that was 2 inches thick with holes in it according to the article. That's f*cking insanity! \n\nAs far as the local school system around here, most of the kids don't know it- but it's legal. The school handbooks just say that it's, "STRONGLY RECCOMENDED NOT TO USE CORPORAL PUNISHMENT". It really bothers me. I myslef do not believe in spanking. I'm more than positive that a lot of parents around here would not be pleased to here that their child has been spanked. If that happened to my child, I would tell the school that it should not be just, "STRONGLY RECCOMENDED NOT TO USE CORPORAL PUNISHMENT". If they refused to do anything about it, I'm sorry, but here comes the violent side of me: I'd kick that teacher's a*s!\n\nI know many parents would do the same thing. And here's another thing I don't like about public school systems: The right to permanently take away objects from students. Yes, I know how hard most teachers work to get children/young adults to pay attention in their class room. But if they are to take say a brand new $359.99 iPod, umm,yeah, I might be a little more than pissed. I think that they should just put the item on their desk till the end of class and then GIVE IT BACK!\n\nFurther more, it seems like they just let any one walk in and become a teacher. A local teacher around here went to the local Mamasita's restaurant and saw a 16 year old girl sitting across the room. Little did he know, the waitress who was waiting on him was the girl's mother. He said to the waitress, "Get the girl over there a Apple Martini... oh, and also, give her this." He handed the woman a card. It said, "NEEDED: MORE THAN RATED R FUTURE STARS FOR THE porn site www.whateverthehellthesite'snamewas.com.\nOi! Was he ever in trouble!\n\nBut for some younger teachers, they aren't giving enough opportunity. A teacher applying for a job might see a "NEEDS MORE EXPERIENCE" thing in the mail from our local school. Well, how the hell are you going to get experience if no one will give it to you? This is about more than education of the students! Future teachers can learn more about teaching from their first teaching gig.\n\nWell, I believe overall, that there could be ALOT of improvements for the school systems.\n\nEDIT: Best answer?

As "wimpy" as it sounds, I really don't support physical fighting at school.  It's not very productive at all and usually just gets the students involved suspended.  There are other ways to work out problems.

Do I like spanking, that is, getting spanked? Well, yes and no.  I long for, and yearn for a good paddling and maybe strapping, with a paddle or wide leather belt or strap.  I guess I could semi-enjoy a semi-hard paddling, but the whole idea for me is to get a paddling that I cannot enjoy--at least at the time.  A good paddling will hurt for several days or a couple of weeks after the paddling.  I believe the paddling should only happen on the buttocks, for safety reasons.  I'd be willing to take a paddling in just about any physical location.  \n\nI "like" the spanking for any combination of the following reasons: I want to submit, and have the other person dominate; the endorphins that result are stimulating; prolonged physical contact; the painful/yummy feeling afterward; knowing i submitted to the person who paddled me and that she dominated me...you get the idea.\n\nSpanking clubs? places where people get together to spank and/or get spanked.  They do a lot of different stuff there, mostly spanking.  Depends on the club.  You can find one in your city.\n\nI'd love to get paddled!  And i want it to be unpleasant.

Amen to that. You have to get the upper hand, and spankings (not love swats or pats) will get the job done. I have raised three boys and four grandkids, and I have spanked all of them at one time or another. It is amazing how much good to correct behavior a spanking will do. Too many "parents" today are just going through the motions and not taking care of business. I see them in the stores every day. Moms or Dads will be there with a child (spanking age) throwing a fit, crying, making noise, and all they do is just say, "Now, Junior, you quit that and be nice." I have to bite my lip and go to another aisle. Time outs and verbal threats do not work well. America is raising one of the most disrespectful generation on the books - that is the reason that we have school shootings and all of the teen suicide, etc.. Parents beware - do your job or all of us will reap the "benefits" of our untrained undisciplined young people.

I have trouble with the strictness at my school.  As much as I understand it, it's really a bummer for us kids that are actually well-behaved, you know?  *sighs*  It's sad...

Not as long as it is a 'spanking' and not physically abusive, leaving marks and/or bruises.

spanking yes, beating, no. in years gone by, spanking was always used. people grew up with more respect and crime was no where near as bad. u could leave your doors open and be safe and not be burgled etc. kids were no where near as spoiled as they are now yet they grew up a whole lot better. more considerate, more respectful and were thankful for wot they had.

Are we talking sex or careers here?\n\nI'm a teacher, I want to spank them. And I'm submissive. I want to spank them too. Yeah, spankings all around.

There are plenty of spanking sites on the net, many of them free.  Check them out, find the ones that come closest to your tastes, then join up and start chatting, joining in discussions, etc.  Once you've got yourself known, and people recognise that you're a civilised guy who just likes to spank, not some sadistic nutcase, you can start IM'ing girls, exchanging emails and - with luck - arranging to meet.  Good luck!

I don't believe so, no.  I think that only the parents should be able to administer corporal punishment if and when they see fit.  If the school has an issue with a child and they feel that corporal punishment would help quell that issue, then I believe they should contact the parent(s) to come down and issue corporal punishment if the parent agrees to it.  If the parent does not administer corporal punishment at home, then it should be a non-issue and the parents and the school should work together to come up with a punishment suitable for the action of the student.

Are you actually allowed to discipline children?\n\nHere in the UK if a teacher disciplines a child they run the risk of being reported for child abuse or contravening the childs human rights.  For example - any contact between teacher and child is assault, there was a case in the news a few days ago where the parents had to be called in to stick a plaster on a child.\n\nShort of talking to them or getting used to the noise I guess there isn't much that you can do other than stick some headphones on.

As safe as snitchin sounds that unfortunately never works. Your parents or the principal cant protect u when ur in the hallways or walkin outside from school. Do sumthin crazy like a bitch slap in the cafteria or pour a carton of milk on them. It may get u beat up one more time but ull earn ur respect and from them and others for standin up for urself.

No, it is NOT appropriate to spank a 14 year old. go see a guidance counselor at school so that you and your family can get some help. Good Luck, sweetie.

nope, sorry.  Unless the corporal punishment leaves bruises.
