The issue in play here is a trade term sometimes known as Emplacive Parenting… or some shit like that. I have heard my mom speak on this at conferences. What I know about this, I know from her. Anyhow, when your kids are at school, teachers take on a limited guardianship of your kids. The question has always been: To what extent.
As you probably know, corporal punishment is still a thing in roughly half of the states in the country. Although it fell out of vogue in the 80’s, it’s still on the books in many places, lying dormant, waiting to be used.
As we see an uptick in political polarization across the nation, schools are once again seeing action on the front lines on the culture wars. As there are many parents who are effectively saying they want schools sent back in time to when they were in school, it can’t shock you to learn that some school systems will revert all the way back to spare the rod; spoil the child. It’s a natural progression.
