Via NPR, corporal punishment is still alive and well in North Florida.
But Joe! Isnt hitting children wrong? No. There are many people who need/benefit from CONSISTENT physical consequences as a part of learning self control. Florida seems to have gone to great lengths to make sure the procedure for this sort of discipline is clearly laid out. As long as the rules are followed and there is a 2nd adult involved as a check on the authority calling for the paddling - I say we need more of this. Coarse I also feel we should bring back duels, canings and more dealth penalties to help correct the behavior of adults. Shrug.
