I think there is a case to be made that this is sexual assault... at least DA should be involved hlthe2b Mar 9 #4

Another sad aspect of this is moniss Mar 9 #6

I understand your perspective. I don't understand if it minimizes her assault to compare the two littlemissmartypants Mar 9 #11

She had two bad choices. Voltaire2 Mar 9 #77

Her other options would impact her application for college. redqueen Mar 9 #93

If it comes across as victim blaming Duncanpup Mar 9 #120

Schools in the South still rely on 'paddling' as a form of punishment. 70sEraVet Mar 9 #17

Why do they call it paddling? Farmer-Rick Mar 9 #24

What is the difference? The practice is abhorent, sadistic, sick, by whatever name. niyad Mar 9 #27

Paddling sounds more benign Farmer-Rick Mar 9 #37

My guess is they use an instrument, like a paddle, not hands. phylny Mar 9 #28

I think the idea is, spanking is with the hand, paddling is with an instrument. 70sEraVet Mar 9 #30

Yeah, you are right Farmer-Rick Mar 9 #39

Hitting a child with a board is so much nicer. Voltaire2 Mar 9 #79

Hitting would be even more accurate. WhiskeyGrinder Mar 9 #32
