Rejected petition Bring back school punishment and relax parental discipline

More details

If parents and schools were still allowed to discipline children, they wouldn't be running amok as we have seen a fine example of over the last few days. Children have absolutely no respect for authority, possessions and rules as they have no guidance. We are seeing the creation of the generation that have never worked a day in their lives. This is human rights gone crazy, who is benefiting - certainly not our children.
