She sacrificed her daughter to nail the principal. I doubt the daughter was in on the plan.
Nobody is hitting my kid. Not only was this beyond harsh, it was humiliating, too. I still wonder why people have their kids in these schools.
In any school I went to where paddling was permitted parental consent was required. The school’s discipline procedures were clearly outlined in handbooks (or in this day, online)and parents could opt their child out of physical punishment and request alternate discipline measures. It was also never to be used as a first resort. So I wonder whether the principal went against school policy.
