Should the cane/beating be reintroduced at school?

Sorry Jess and Katie but Joe, these two can tell us what its like first hand.

They know how bad it is in schools now. I have no idea, its 7 years since I left school

and would you want to send your kids to a school where the teachers talk like that

Obviously they dont use language as bad as that...but they still use language like it i suppose...thats how teachers have been told 2 act now though. if u dont want 2 be here im not bothered, sort of thing.

OMG YOU TRUELY ARE THE THICKEST PIECE OF WHITE TRASH I HAVE EVER MET!

Katie agreed with heather - no caning in school!
Jess - said CANING WONT WORK IN SCHOOL!!!

What part don't u understand u thick thick thick child... I think ur father beat u 1 too many times - he knocked all the sense right outa your head

so why has the child in the article persistently re-offended?

he's been locked up because he's an extreme extreme example of disruptive behaviour. so you suggest every child who does something wrong is placed in a young offenders institute, away from their parents/guardians? surely being isolated from your family is a much more disturbing experience than being hit once or twice?

The teachers have a point though. Why should they put up with the shit they get off kids. Anyone thats brave enough to teach teenagers deserves a medal IMO.

I always wanted to be a teacher but theres no way I could teach any older than 6 or 7. I think it would be a total nightmare

haha primary school kids would run intellectual rings round u pet

Out of the teachers in my school, there are very few who have control over the class. When ur a teenager at school u make decisions though, if u are going 2 be mature enough 2 realise u have 2 work 2 pass, your alright....unfortunately not everybody thinks that way! Its all about self control...

word.

Anyway, what age group was this thread about? Was it even about teenagers aswell?

?!?!?!? what are you babling on about - I was using your example...

Just highlighting that children in todays society usually know right from wrong and they each have individual reasons for breaking these rules... you can't treat every case as the same!

Caning doesn't work.

Yet again Joe, something you know nothing about

one minutes it primary school kids, next its comprhensive... basically the chimps change it as and when it suits them - they actually have no idea

lol it doesn't take a primary school kid to work out your an idiot pet

Not sharing your opinion does not make me an idiot. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion and just because people don't agree with you it does not make them wrong. Get off your high horse, youve got no reason to be on it Joe

some kids are twats an will misbehave/break rules/the law whatever you do/don't do to them...

the problem is working out if they do have an addressable problem, or if they just have a warped view of social acceptance...

I was calling u an idiot because Jess and Katie both said they thought caning was wrong and for some weird increbbidly stooopid reason u thought they were agreeing with u?!?!??!?

In a daphne and celeste styleeee

You don't need no HND
Your dumb hey hey your DUMB

Which teachers? There is nobody on here who is a teacher? If your referring to CyberChick post, I don't think 'Wor Katie' is the voice of the NUT.

I have 2 very good friends who are teachers & from what I know 'THEY ARE BOTHERED ABOUT ALL THE KIDS THEY TEACH & THEY ALSO GO THE EXTRA MILE TO HELP PROBLEM KIDS'

I would like to think their attitude is the same as there colleagues

I wish more teachers had the same attitude as those you are talking about.
Some of the teachers in my school do care about giving people extra help, but not all of them do....it is obviously going 2 depend on what type of school they teach at aswell?
