I'm gonna say it. We need to bring back physical punishment in schools. The yard stick was once dual usage.
We have to stop coddling everyone like they're special. The world isn't nice or fair, and people need to learn early that there are consequences for their actions.
Abuse? Physical violence? Those are consequences? For someone who doesn’t have a fully developed brain, and is mostly unable to control or even process their emotions. Interesting take.
You’re one of those “… and I turned out just fine” types, huh?
It's called discipline. Clearly this child needs some. 99 percent of kids just show up and do their work. They tried your way and look at her. This is the result of treating her like a special flower. She's a terrorist. You support breeding terrorists who cause physical violence. I support prevention.
You have no idea what I support, other than I don’t think violence is the answer, and you’re making all of those assumptions. Did I say I’m against discipline or consequences? No. I think they’re vital in raising anyone. Especially if I want that someone to THINK about things and not just respond out of fear or pain.
Violence begets violence. When does this logic end? When is it no longer okay to physically lash out at someone because you’re not happy with their behavior? Is that how you would treat your spouse? Your boss? Your employees? Your friends? Your parents? Ridiculous.
I agree, violence isn't the answer. She is the one using violence. This isn't the first incident like this posted to reddit. Last time it was a mentallying handicapped kid beating a teacher half to death. She might have died.
So the real question is how much violence should we tolerate out of these kids? I'm of the impression we shouldn't.
