For those who work in schools that allow corporal punishment, are the teachers allowed to do it or is it done by the principal?
I'm not in favor of spankings, I think there are better ways to parent & discipline, again JMO.
Having said that, I think too many parents do not set rules, boundaries or enough and/or any repercussions for actions.
A lot of kids are out of control. They do not respect their parents or any adults and they are the ones in control.
I do feel sorry for teachers these days having to deal with kids like this. Some parents feel it's somehow the responsibility of the school to parent their child and hold the system responsible for the actions of their kids.

Well first of all, that child was WAY too old to spank. Spanking beyond the age of 6 or 7 is not necessary, by that age they are old enough to have privledges taken away or have detention, extra assignments or suspension.
An adult male putting his hands on a teenage girls bottom is just plain stupid.
