FULL TITLE: Shocking video shows American schoolkids running in terror as teacher whips 'unruly' children with his belt

A group of four boys fighting in their classroom were brutally halted when their teacher took off his belt and started hitting them with it.

In shocking cell phone video posted to Live leak on Friday, likely recorded in an American classroom, children can be heard shrieking as the unidentified teacher whips them about three times with his belt.

Chairs and tables are overturned, what appear to be middle-school aged boys and girls scream in fear and let out nervous laughter as they scatter and run to either side of the room.

Scroll down for video

This reminds me of a show I saw in New Zealand that pertains to this very subject of current classroom/school behavior. I am amazed it actually got three seasons. For anyone who is interested in some good laughs and universal social commentary (only the races/cultures are different) from Down Under, I give you:

The paddle in our school (displayed prominently in the principal’s office) had three holes drilled in it to lessen wind resistance as it descended toward your hindquarters...

When my grades dropped beneath an A in 8th grade math, my teacher gave me one week to start making A's again or I would get a whupping a week (and he was a tough SOB...a survivor of the Baton Death March). He sent a note home to my Dad and wanted it signed and returned.

My Dad told me that for every whupping Mr Bass gave me, I would get another when I got home.

My Dad also started working with me on my homework every night.

I never made less than an A on math again...even through graduate school.;-)

It is well known. Everyone knows it. What has been forbidden is actually doing it. What the teacher did will likely result in a long paid vacation followed by early retirement, and other teachers will be warned that using any physical violence to prevent another child from being injured is strictly forbidden.

Find anyone over 45; we all know how we were controlled as children. We know what The Paddle is, and where it was kept when we were in primary school. Few ever felt the paddle in use; just the existence was enough to keep most of us in line. And then we watched it be outlawed, and watched school violence soar. We watched as schools became prisons with iron bars surrounding them to ‘protect’ children. We watched metal detectors being put in, random searches, police dogs patrolling corridors in the schools of our children.

Take away the “parents” EBT and welfare on the 3rd occurrence of little Da’Noosh’s misbehaving

Remember, these children are disabled and their parent is receiving monthly disability payments to assist in helping care for the kid with a 'learning disability.' That's the real money in welfare these days.

The paddle pretty much disappeared from public schools in California before I reached high school; not so shockingly, school violence soared with each year. The ‘ultimate’ punishment when I graduated from high school was a 3 day revocation of a lunch pass to leave campus for any significant infraction.

There is a lesson here. When you are in the midst of fighting feral animals, scolding them is the idiots way to deal with them.

I like your solution. We’ve had too many years of bleeding heart liberal disciplinary policies in schools. Marine drill sergeants could likely bring some order.

I got no problem with this. I got whupped with a belt, a hair brush, a ruler, a yardstick, a spatula, the back of a hand and the front of the hand. I was terribly affected. I stopped doing the bad or dangerous behavior. And I grew up to be a college educated father of five, president of my company and all around good citizen.

Before there was a threat of pain, I was scolded, yelled at, sent to bed, missed desert, grounded, and ridiculed. Of course that never stopped me. But the belt sure did.

Frankly, I never really hit my kids. One because I had 4 girls and only one boy. And secondly because the threat of hitting them was often enough. I did pinch my daughter after she pinched her younger siblings numerous times. I though she should understand how it felt. And I did spank a kid for putting a paperclip in an outlet. I figured that one could not happen again. But that was all I remember.

Time outs seemed to work best for us. And we simply got madder than our kids. The belt never came out but they never knew what we might do.

FWIW, if the scenario was an out of control situation where non-involved students could be injured, in spite of the situation, most teachers I was acquainted with would get involved. But the teacher might be breaking policy.

I'm a retired teacher. I get it that many teachers think they have to stay because they're so necessary. I've come to disagree. For anyone in that kind of situation, they aren't doing any one any good, and they could become injured or unemployable.

JMHO

I got several paddlings in middle school...

Back in the day ... the punishment was being strapped. The strap was maybe 16" x 4" and looked like it was from a piece of conveyor belting. Typically five on each outstretched hand ... hurt like hell. Speaking from personal experience.

I went to public school in the 60s in a county that once had the highest school scores in the state. We had kids in our class who went on to become scientists or professors at Harvard, MIT and other prestigious universities. Now, however, it has become a blue county, and most of the graduates of the same school do not even go to college.

When we were at that school, the principal had a wooden paddle with holes drilled in it. The holes left welts.

My principle’s paddle also had welt producing holes. And as I later learned, the holes allowed the paddle to be swung faster (more aerodynamic).;-)
