Wow
This is a huge generation gap thing here
I’m 58
Southern
What’s your perspective
I’m just curious what drives people to think certain ways especially those born after say mid 60s
>> What does the boys Dad have to say?
If only we knew who it is, we could interview him and find out.
If my Mom filmed every time the Nuns paddled my brothers and sister, she would have had to join a entertainment guild.
My dad always said, “You get a whipping at school, you will get another when you get home!”
So we kept quiet when we got one! And we deserved it!
Or worse....faggotry and metero sexuality
>> Im 58
According to his home page, “stylin” is 66.
ROFL
That’s only a small taste of the abuse that government will rain down on this kid during his life.
short version.
I’m 66. Raised in a Roman Catholic orphanage from age 8 to 17. I was beat to death by roman catholic nuns.
your turn.
He got paddled for hitting other children, not listening, being disruptive and nothing else was working.
The Soviet-driven "cultural revolution" in the US that decimated and destroyed our conventions and institutions. They infiltrated and affected everything. Race, "gender" politics, drugs, churches, family structure, education, entertainment etc etc etc.
Divide and conquer.
Reagan may have destroyed them, but unfortunately...not before they won.
> What does the boys Dad have to say?
What dad?
This is 2106.
We don’t need no steenking dads.
De gubmint takin’ care us.
I got paddles in elementary school by nuns, for throwing a snow ball back at a boy who threw it at me first. Then I got paddled when I got home. If you ever disrespected a teacher you were in big trouble at school and at home. I think this is the major problem with kids these days- no respect, not taught respect, helicopter parents defending “Johnny” at school no matter what he did.
My kids were made to be accountable and show respect for adults.
Good for the principal.
How can she be charged with truancy when mandatory school age requirement is 6 in Georgia? Government thinks it holds title to your children when you put them in the government school. If that is true, it is institutional slavery of children until they are 16 (or end-age of mandatory attendance requirements).
I have no issue with the corporal punishment, but this did give me pause:
” Her son has had 18 unexcused absences this school year and she was once arrested for his truancy. “
School attendance isn’t required for those under 6 years old in Georgia - K and Pre-K are voluntary.
Ga Code Ann:
§ 20-2-690.1. Mandatory education for children between ages six and 16
(a) Mandatory attendance in a public school, private school, or home school program shall be required for children between their sixth and sixteenth birthdays. Such mandatory attendance shall not be required where the child has successfully completed all requirements for a high school diploma.
Obviously something missing from the story if the mother of a 5 year old has been charged with truancy.
You beat me to it. But I pulled the statute and checked it to make sure.
I understand.
I wonder if permission is even necessary as Georgia is still a corporal punishment state.
Unacceptable. 18 days is not overly horrible. Some kids go on vacation for two weeks and that’s 10 days right there. The mother should have chosen jail over the kid getting abused by the Georgia prinicipal.
She should have applauded the principal for doing her job, better yet, the father’s job, and when he got home added to the punishment. If it had been me when I was a kid, I would be eating of the mantle for a week until my butt cooled off.
