Rollin' with Nick Cannon: Corporal Punishment…How Far Is Too Far?

View Comments
C'mere!

C’mere!

One of the ongoing debates between groups and parents is corporal punishment! Some say spare the rod and spoil the child and others say that the crime rate is up so high because kids have no discipline! Most of us here on the show got our fare share of spankings or beat downs but turned out quite well!

What do you think? What you read next may change your mind!

I think so… when done properly! lol.

Listen NOW!

_____________

The story comes from Orlando, Florida cops arrested Devery Broox after learning about the following video through a tip originally received by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

Nick got his butt whooped when he was growing up, so did Sarah Lee! So the real question is how far is too far when it comes to giving your kid a beat down? The video below shows some discipline but the scary part i,s the kid screaming when he’s being spanked!

Look, I’ll speak for those of us who did catch such beatings.  All that screaming and howling was always worse than the actual spanking… yes, this is true!

Share your thoughts in the comments below and weigh in on one of the great debates of all time!

Watch the vid here!

    Most Americans don’t know that their Tax Dollars support public school employees to inflict Pain to Punish Schoolchildren in predominantly Southern “Bible Belt” Schools!
    If school employees hit students with wooden paddles to inflict pain as punishment in public, they’d be arrested for assault as would any parent, police officer, lawmaker or U.S. Supreme Court Justice!

    Recent news reports indicate that 2 Shelby County, TN mothers are being charged with Felony child abuse for hitting their children with implements such as belts or shoes and may face up to 12 years in Prison, meanwhile, Shelby County schools maintain Corporal Punishment/Pain based behavior management by hitting students with thick wooden paddles as part of their Discipline policy.
    Search Tell Congress to Support The Ending Corporal Punishment in Schools Act and complete the simple form to email an automated letter to your Representatives in Congress urging them to Support H.R. 3027 “The Ending Corporal Punishment in Schools Act”, which can be sent Daily.
    Corporal Punishment/Paddling of Students is Illegal in Schools in 31 U.S. States.
    School teachers, coaches and administrators are mandatory reporters of suspected child abuse, yet are not held to any safety standards to protect students from paddling injuries when they hit students with wooden paddles to inflict pain as punishment for minor infractions that put taxpayer funds at risk due to lawsuits against school districts.
    No training, testing or certification is required for school employees to administer pain to students as punishment. Pain, Fear, Intimidation and Humiliation are not positive “Disciplinary Tools” nor do they create a safe learning environment. All U.S. students Must have Equal access to safe and healthy learning environments in our taxpayer funded schools

    Paddling is Bullying, Outlaw It, Says U.S. Congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy, who introduced a federal bill to ban corporal punishment in American schools on September 22, 2011.
    “Bullying is enough of a problem among students; the teachers shouldn’t be doing it, too. There’s nothing positive or productive about corporal punishment,” McCarthy said on her House website.
    The bill would ban paddling, spanking and all other forms of physical pain as punishment of students K-12.
    Nineteen U.S. states allow corporal punishment in school, most of them in the south. They are: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Wyoming.

    Devery Broox needs to spend some time in prison. He’s facing 5 years if convicted.

    He was arrested and charged with felony child abuse.

    My friends and I saw Devery’s video online and reported him to the Orlando police. Devery is not only a child abuser, he’s a stupid child abuser. His video is all the prosecution needs to convict him.

    Some kids need a good smack I will agree, but by that time its too late. Parents need to be parents from the get go, kids have to know that you are the parent and they are the child, that being said too many parents let their toddler get away with murder and by the time you try to discipline them its too late. I have 3 kids and I flash a look and it stops. They are respectful and good kids. A little tap on the but never hurt it shows who’s in charge. Kids need structure and rules parents need to instill that.
