Getting moered taught you consequences, it's not really about respect imho. Are you a basket case today because of this "abuse"?
Yes. I hated school for it, the in doctrine nature of it all, totally sucked, if you consider the apartheid curriculum taught, general intolerance to other races, I mean we us kids at the time were blissfully unaware of the general strife in our white suburban idyllic lifestyle at the time. Racism was subtly taught and encouraged,. In the general sense why I hate humanity as a whole. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't wish it on any person let alone a defenseless child. As a child you had little or no rights,

If you were to argue social decay as a result of lack of corporal punishment you are pretty naive to think that is what kept society in check. "A Free societal existence" is but a mere blip in our long recorded history, but then again is it real, and that is an entirely different philosophical debate. Just have to look at recorded history just how well punishment worked, revolution, overthrowing of kings/queens, tribes ect. Has punishment in any way or form being a deterrent to dissension in history.

Working on the assumption it worked out okay for you, the person next to you must have had similar experience. I didn't turn to crime so punishment must have worked. I didn't turn into a drug addict or alcoholic or serial killer or wife beater or a pedophile the punishment I received as a developing and impressionable young mind must have worked. ? What warped reality do you live in to not see that type of negative re-enforcement doesn't work never worked and will never work.

You want to tell me there is literally NO other way to deal with consequences other than the guise of actual physical harm/abuse or threat thereof. Is it perfectly acceptable for a teacher to grab you by the scruff of your shirt because you didn't do your homework, not even speaking of verbal abuse you could endure at the hands of an educator. Yeah, no according to you our apartheid school system was just peachy. TF it was. Your reality check, have you cashed it yet ?, it might bounce at this rate.

So yeah it fked me up enough that I have a distaste and hatred for any educator of that time.

I couldn't make this shyte up if I wanted to

Punishment can cause mental illness
Slightly more likely to commit crime
Could stunt developmental growth


First page is littered with studies on the subject that proofs you pretty much naive enough to believe it works.

Nothing wrong with me and my mates. All became successful and well adjusted without landing in jail. None resent the cane, observe its influence on their life attitude of actions having consequences and being nice to people..

I'm not denying that, I even said as much - in fact this conversation about education started with me saying it is the biggest failing of the ANC. So get off your high horse. I'm asking for evidence that AA or BEE specifically is what is responsible for the state of education here. Can you provide such evidence or not?
Just look who is running education in the country. Party connections under the guise of AA got them that jobs.

I don’t know what schools you went to but of the 6 schools that I attended, this never happened where the teacher was a psycho, and HOD always dished out the discipline in a professional manner. So I think you are in the tiny minority of people who think this is bad. Did you go to boys town or something?

Again with the my mates were fine, everyone else must have been fine as well argument. People even had different reactions to the army and the border wars, it is fking well documented. Denial isn't just a river. Links provided is based on studies that show that corporal punishment had a negative effect and sometimes the opposite effect. The end of the cane was never the answer was a short term solution. Have you considered, different personalities, different upbringings, different set of conditions. Is your testosterone driven masculinity blinding you that much.

I disagree. I think the biggest downfall of SA is the lack of proper education from primary all through to tertiary education. If people were properly educated and qualified the economic effects of BEE and AA would be insignificant. The ANC has made a lot of mistakes but the biggest, imo, is not focusing large amounts of money and resources on educating the population of this country properly.

Try again. Education is the largest item on the budget. There is lots of money going into it.

The biggest downfall of South Africa is sadly very simple. The people of South Africa, namely black people, voted for and will continue to vote for the ANC. The South Africa you see every day with the murder, rape, corruption, theft and incompetence is the South Africa that a largely black electorate voted for and therefore wanted.

Got a question for you though: should all ethnic groups be proportionately represented across all levels of society?

Oh the irony in your statement. You are aware that a minority group in this country quite successfully oppressed and essentially made racism a law. You and your buddies must be the same people who think apartheid was a good thing and had it good. How about you check your white privilege there buddy.

And yet here you are claiming that racism is perfectly fine when a majority group does it.
