Spanking In School... On TV... Is Legal... And Encouraged?

The Crime TV's show The Principal's Office shows an array of out-of-the-norm incidents that principals deal with. Pretty funny. However one principal in Arkansas is out of line. By Arkansas law, teachers can spank their students with a big hunk of wood known as a paddle. As if that isn't bad enough, you've got a sixty something year old man spanking thirteen and fourteen year on girls behind a closed door. That's just sick. If it was a woman, it wouldn't be as bad but a man doing it is just perverted. Also they basically force the students to choose the paddle as punishment because they're saying "Get spanked three times for a few seconds or have detention for a week and let it go in your records and call your parents." Also the principal doesn't have to inform parents that he spanked their children. And it obviously doesn't work because you're giving a kid about ten minutes of a pain in the butt which they forget twenty minutes later. Then future schools have no knowledge of how much they acted up. It's ridiculous and outdated. If you really want to punish a teenager, take away their Saturday and stick them in detention. They're going hurt a lot more for that than a ten second spanking.
