Subject: Assignment 2: Corporal Punishment

I found a website on corporal punishment and the address is www.stophitting.com.

My opinion on corporal punishment is that is should be allowed in the school systems as long as it is followed by an explanation of how to prevent the problems from happening again. Obviously, suspensions are ineffective and costly to the parent who has to miss work to clear the suspension while the student gets to take the day off. I believe that the principal should administer the paddling and not the teacher or the nurse. The difference is that usually the principle has an authoritive role and that there is a humiliation associated with going to the principal's office. From a religious perspective, the Bible is supportive of corporal punishment. For the most part, I disagree that school violence has declined since the banning of corporal punishmnent in 1994. If anything, it has became dramatically worse and as a result there are numerous students that are now being home schooled. Teachers need something to work in their favor to maintain classroom control.
