    In my Catholic school it was outlawed somewhere around 1990. But it happened until then.

    That is how it stopped for me at home. I grabbed a hand coming at me and held it as I said "Don't ever hit me again" that was then end of my getting hit. Things were a lot better after that. As far as I know, none of my children have spanked any of their children. They are all doing very well.

    Sometime during my time in grade school the "corporal punishment"/paddling stopped. Had to be sometime in the early '70's.

    But the sadistic teachers and principals found ways to punish you that lasted longer than a good paddling.

    When we grew up and went to school
    There were certain teachers who would
    Hurt the children in any way they could
    By pouring their derision upon anything we did
    And exposing every weakness
    However carefully hidden by the kids
    But in the town, it was well known
    When they got home at night, their fat and
    Psychopathic wives would thrash them
    Within inches of their lives.

    was 10 yrs old 1n 1977, got a heck a swat from 5th grade teacher mr. McClure, toughest part was going back in the class room and trying to sit down without crying or acting hurt, but it hurt/ stung really bad, and thats the last time i'll chew gum in class.

    was never paddled or hit but had a woodshop teacher who would pinch the back of you neck quite hard if you were not wearing safety glasses , it worked because i wear them still when i should be , he was the same teacher who would borrow my pocketknife to sharpen pencils then hand it back to me, now he would be charged with abuse and my small knife would trigger a swat response , times have sure changed but i learned a lot from that man.
