It sucks most of all where a parent is not permitted to whack a misbehaving kid. Used to be the norm, in fact I seen a video made in Australia recently where the mom whacked her whinging kid so bad it knocked him over. Nobody arrested her.

I think we should have more not less discipline.

Just old enough to recall the instant justice both at home and school I recall there was far less crime, and we never ever read about kids taking guns to school.

In fact this mother should be an example of what to do with a bold snivelling little runt who will not behave.

I heartly applaud her motives while recommending she go a little easier next time. 'More power to yer elbow' - in true Gorman style of course.
