I don't believe in paddling for any reason.
I also don't believe in waiting to go to the bathroom or particularly cared if my kids are "tardy",as they often were, for that very reason. They are adults now and the world keeps spinning and I'd do it myself if it came down to it. No guilt, no bad attitude, just fact.

Diguised as a very "traditional" one, yes. I wonder if I could take a crude wooden club (the kind cavemen used to use) and beat the principal down with it, then use "tradition" as my excuse

My elementary school called my mom, who then called my dad, who had to be radioed in the field from dispatch that "your son is in trouble at school". My Dad would then have to leave the jobsite (he was an HVAC/Electrician) come to school, and he would k*ck my ass all the way to the truck, then take me home and switch me.

I did NOT get in trouble very often at school, lol.

As a matter of fact- I lived in a neighborhood with blue collar dads, and back then if ANOTHER dad saw you doing something wrong, or if you talked back to a Mom, THEY switched your butt, then sent you home to your Dad who then switched your butt again. Again- you didn't really get in trouble very often.

Schools where I grew up didn't switch (70's)- the village at home took care of it.

Let someone at school spank MY child, and see the unholy wrath they would unleash with me.

Neither did I. And I didn't even have to get beaten. Interesting...

I didn't often have to visit the backside of the woodshed, but I was certainly mischievous, lol.

You think YOU would be bad, you should see me if someone spanked my child at school, it would be like if the blair witch and samara from the ring had a child with demonic powers and that child went on to have a child with the girl from the exorcist...wrath would be a mild term for what would happen....the depths of hell would open up underneath the school and I would be what ended any paddling in schools.

Those school administrators would think they died and went to hell and then they would realise that they would be so lucky to be in hell because I would be much much worse.

good luck trying to paddle a teenager, since they are as large and strong and often in better shape than the adults lol. Might find themselves getting paddled by them instead.
