Title: 68-year-old grandma bullied by seventh grade boys!
Post by: Tamara-B on June 23, 2012, 02:01:38 AM
This makes me sick and I am appalled that kids can be so cruel. I wanted to beat up every one of those little demon seeds. How can they harass someone that could be their grandmother, for crying out loud?!

These guys probably wouldn't perform this nonsense if they had been tamed a little via the paddle treatment as discussed in my post in the "Opinion" category and Tamara-B's thread titled "Should Children be Spanked?".  Kids need to learn self discipline, both from home and from the schools, else they can become as weeds in a garden instead of beautiful flowers.

What is missing in these miscreants discipline is shame.  Public shaming is a more effective deterrant than paddling or time out or whatever inneffective methods used now.  Call a school assembly and march em out on the stage.  Have the principle describe what happened... bring in the grandma and make em apologize in public.
