Ending Corporal PunishmentRead the article this discussion is about
This archived discussion is "read only".
» colleenmwilliams - Marilyn, Hello... I am the new ME for this area. I was very pleased when I read your article...with your talent. I was floored by the fact that corporal punishment was only recently outlawed there! Wow! Thanks for the learning experience! Colleen-- posted by colleenmwilliams » kerryhook - Re: Marilyn, Hello... In response to message posted by colleenmwilliams:Sadly, in Tennessee, corporal punishment is still allowed in the schools. Sadder still, many parents endorse this form of brutality. I have often wondered if beating kids, leads to a weakening of other means of punishment. If a child gets a "whopping" or a "beat down", as they say here, will they ever again respond to a time out, or other less violent form of discipline? Any thoughts on this?? -- posted by kerryhook
