Missouri School District Brings Spanking Back—and Says Some Parents Are Grateful

A school district in Missouri has decided that things were much better back in the day when kids were allowed to be spanked at school. The school board in Barry County approved the new corporal punishment policy back in June, notifying parents Tuesday that the decision would be put to a vote this week. Parents are being asked if they would like to opt their child in or out of the program, which the county allegedly plans to administer on a case-by-case basis.

Reprimanding kids by “swatting the buttocks with a paddle” is constitutional and legal in the state. “We’ve had people actually thank us for it,” Superintendent Merlyn Johnson told theThe board has planned for the paddling to only be administered by a principal at the school, with a witness and never in front of children.

They stopped it for a reason.

How is America taking a time warp into the past?

Oh have you?

Good!

This is the same party that glorifies armed children. Don’t see a problem here at all.

I'm surprised this is happening in Missouri

And were these people wearing robes and crosses while holding up a magic genie book?

How much do you want to bet Chaya Raichik and her libsoftiktok minions won’t have a word to say in protest?

I had same standing rule my step mom had, touch my kid without my permission, 1 I'll knock you the fuck out, 2 you'll be hearing from my attorney. She decked a vice principal for spankin me with paddle. Don't ever touch another's child. Period

Dunce caps and sitting face into the corner next!

Your parents have to “opt-in or opt-out” of punishment at school. Seems archaic.

Hell no.

That remains to be felt. Anyone touches my kid's body in any manner they will answer to my lawyer already listed on speed dial.

Wait a damn minute here. If I hit my kid with a paddle cps would take my kids or at the minimum set up a safety plan and make me go to anger management. But a teacher is gonna be allowed to paddle a kid? Hard no.

LOL
