Indeed. If I had so much as back-talked a janitor or school secretary, much less a teacher, I’d have received at least two butt-whippings, one from the principal and one from my father.

I guarantee you that most of the kids in that video do not have a father in their home.

THAT is the key to a great number of our social problems.

In the 40s and 50s being sent to the principals office was right next to a hanging. The words “reform school” were uttered in whispers and made you go pale. I ended up in military school, simply because of my attitude problem. I really didn’t need major adjustments, but they were available if needed, LOL
