School Corporal Punishment In Tennessee
#17
Agree with Michael that the article shed a lot of light on the reasons for her reactions. First, it doesn't sound like she's used spanking often with her son, while clearly not anti-spanking (well until perhaps now) it doesn't sound like she had been using spankings much at all on her son, and certainly not with an item like a big paddle that can leave marks like in the picture. If her only previous experience with the paddle was when her son got it back in October and there was only some redness and soreness, I can completely understand her reaction to seeing significantly more marks and bruises compared to the previous time. If you expect one result and get a significantly different one it is common to have a significant reaction, and possibly an overreaction. Also, since the kid was wearing three layers of clothing during the second paddling it does seem likely that the paddling was either done harder or longer, something had to be different to produce two different results from the two paddlings. The investigation they did just proved that he followed procedure, which is frankly pretty irrelevant to the question at hand which is how hard was the paddle applied. There's no way to tell that after the fact.

School's are not allowed to paddle where I live so this will never be an issue. But even if we did I would not allow it anyways, if they called I would tell them no, but I would certainly take care of the issue myself at home.
