‘Caning acts as a great deterrent to others’
In many discussions about the use of corporal punishment the line between discipline in school and juvenile delinquency in society at large were blurred.
Rotarians in a small town in England
wondered who should be responsible for discipline: parents, schools, or courts.
Their meeting was reported in great detail
in the local newspaper. Below: first an extract from the report of most
relevance and then the report in full. A lot is said about the danger of the
cinema.
Below that is a letter from a headmaster
who believes ‘a summary caning is the most effective treatment’ and ‘a caning
acts as a great deterrent to others.’
