Texas moms approve of same sex paddlings

What I find interesting is that the name of the assistant principal is not reported in the news stories I've read. He violated school policy by hitting a child of the opposite sex. (Allegedly, he wasn't aware of the same-sex paddling rule but isn't that his job to know the rules? After all, he hits children for breaking the rules.) As the mothers indicated, the bruisings were excessive and might warrant criminal charges if the assault was committed by a parent. The names of the minors are broadcast nationally. But the perpetrator's identity seems a better kept secret than the identity of the Navy SEALS that killed Osama Bin Laden. Basic journalistic standards of complete reporting would require identifying the perpetrator. What are the consequences for this school employee who violated school policy? (HINT: This is rural Texas.) For those who think I'm unkind to Texas in my stories and my piece in Wellread Weekly, I stand by my previous position.

What a muddled attitude to CP there exists both in the US and in you. You love to write about the most horribly abusive paddlings of small children and yet are upset by this story. I find your thinking hard to understand.

There is a world of difference between writing fantasy and tolerating real-life acts.

Fantasizing about the spanking of teenage girls is one of the great pleasures in my life. Thank goodness my neighbor's daughter can't read minds. Would I actually carry out my fantasy? Of course not. I would never victimize anybody, much less a child. So, yes, while fictional accounts of spanking a girl are a turn on for me, to read about a person in authority spanking an unwilling child is appalling.

Suemary, you and I go around and around on this. You support the hitting of children in real life. I don't. Njrick and Wrestler24 are precisely right.

The question here is not the spanking itself, the parents here chose the option to let their children be spanked, just as parents in many places have the right to make that choice. The question is 'who' did the spanking. As far as spanking a child goes it should be a family choice, and whether someone supports or does not support such a position is entirely beside the point. In Texas it is within the rights of the parents to make their own decision about how to raise their own families.

I enjoy a reputation of OFTEN being right... but NEVER in doubt!

She wasn't really unwilling. Her sentence was two days detention and after one day she opted for the paddling. Only spankos would do that, wouldn't they? And for me that is the main problem if you offer older girls an opt-in/opt-out choice. If you opt for it, it's consensual and if it is consensual it's not a punishment, it becomes a kinky game. Schools shouldn't offer a choice for erotic plays to school-girls. If the assistant principal would kiss a girl he would be probably in more trouble than now. That feels crazy to me.

Mati has a point, in reviewing the situation again, it does seem the girls were willing. I would also wonder if perhaps the girls encouraged the vp in order to get things over with all the quicker.

Reason I say that is the girls and their mothers were the ones who made this a public issue, the school and vp kept it confidential. There is no evidence the vp tried to hide the event or what he did once it became known, which makes one wonder if he had some sort of permission from the girls. The girls have now expressed regret over the whole thing becoming so public, perhaps because they had more to do with things then they ever admitted.

One could ask if the vp had permission, why has he not spoken out? I suppose the school and vp don't want this to go any further then it has.

Only guessing here of course, but I think we do not know anywhere near the whole story.

I do find your thinking hard to understand suemary. Why shouldn't Grace be upset by this story? And what logical link could there be between her excellent works of fiction and her attitudes to real life corporal punishment? You have obviously read a few of those stories full of "horrible abusive paddlings"! No one forced you to read them I hope! By all means disagree with someone but please spare us the unpleasantness.
