Court-approved paddling?
Justice of peace told to stop paddling in court
Quote:
Note that the plaintiff in the lawsuit chose to paddle his stepdaughter rather than pay a fine. |

Also, judges get away with some creative "alternative" sentences for people, especially juviniles (like standing on the corner wearing a sign, for example) all the time, and its been ruled ok, so why is this different? they still had a choice... Oh, I know the problem, somebody wanted to save money by not paying the fine, so they picked the paddling, then figured they could even MAKE money on the deal with alaw suit. Ah, the modern American way.

If people were allowed to discipline their kids to start with without having to get a court order to do it, then over half of these problems would never surface in the first place.....

So they chose to beat their kids to save money.... Hmm I would not admit to that in public.
