[> [> Subject: Re: High school paddling Author: Karen for Cliff [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 13:29:27 10/09/24 Wed The paddles are have wholes drilled but sanded smooth then varnished and a clear coat put on . Gym coaches cannot paddle but varsity sport coaches can and do paddle I played middle and high school softball our coaches had paddles and on road trips and tournaments the paddles came with us . My college has no sports so my student athlete days are over . At our schools teachers send a referral from thier laptop during class the cal you up to their desk and you have to wait for you name to be called anything after lunch will probably the next day . Paddlings are done in order they we received. They call you to the office with three or four other students so there is a wait time on a bench in the office . [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: Re: High school paddling Author: Cliff (to Karen) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 14:34:16 10/09/24 Wed I played football from 7th grade through 11th. Even though all the coaches had paddles, they did not use them very much at practice. I think I would have prefered a couple of licks over having to bear crawl or running bleachers.

As mentioned there, it has been over fifty years since I was in a school which paddled, and it was not a college [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Re: High school paddling Author: Real Laura to Laura [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 16:59:12 10/09/24 Wed I am not saying your name is not real or simply an innocent alias, which is common. But to avoid confusion I want to clarify I was the first "Laura" to post on this thread, and I have posted on this board before. It has nothing to do with whether I agree or not, but I did NOT post this comment. Factually it is inaccurate regarding my childhood spankings or spanking procedures in my schools back then, or in the middle school I teach at now. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: Re: High school paddling Author: Cliff (to the first Laura) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 19:10:25 10/09/24 Wed It is confusing when more than one person with the same first name posts here. I do not blame you for wanting to make sure we know what you post and what is posted by someone else. Since you witness school paddlings from time to time, I would like to hear more about what you have experienced and details about how an actual session with the padlling administrator goes. Is the one who paddles a Principal, or an Assistant Principal? What kind of rule violations normally warrant a paddling? Does the number of licks (swats) vary based on the offense and/or the number of times paddled? Are there normally tears? From both boys and girls? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> Subject: Re: High school paddling Author: Laura 1 [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 09:19:29 10/10/24 Thu I understand. I just wanted to make it clear my comments were not yours, without causing any offense. I was the first Laura to comment on this thread, so was surprised to see another Laura who was not me. I have also commented on this board before. No offense was meant, and if I did please accept my apologies. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
