For all you folk with children at school........

I was thinking of giving Drawboy a lashing for spelling 'aeroplane' wrong and realised you can't do that anymore.
So, my question is............
Do teachers still give naughty children "LINES"?

 

[JustOne]

No, they give them HOMEWORK to punish the parents! :angry:

I think punishments need to be more pacific. Lines is to general. I wood perfere that teachers give punishment relative to the subject taut.

Nope I have to see his teacher and give her 6 of the best.

I don't think I've ever had to do lines in my time at school, if you step out of line you'll get a detention which would normally just be you have to sit in silence/do work during your lunch or after school for the teacher you weren't behaving for

Maybe yours should be Geography lol
Sorry but it made me laugh!

Had a geography teacher who used to make you copy sections out of the Geography Text book.

I remember having to copy a few pages on Glacial movement and erosion. Brought it into him and he tore it up in my face and threw it in the bin!

My enthusiasm for geography died at that moment!

Bob, this scenario reminds me of something that happened last year. Our captain at the time was a retired school teacher and during one of the fiddles he runs a young lad of 14 won. He was set 100 lines, which had to be on the captains table at close of play the following week..

Methinks that he did it on purpose, did you see his other deliberate mistakes

I saw others but thought that may have been auto correct lol

My lad gets green writing for good work, red writing for poor work.

Two reds gets you a lunchtime detention and 3 gets you an after school detention.

I know a teacher who failed a kid not for not knowing the answers but for using text speech!
I think they should bring back corpral punishment that would get the little .....blighters back in line!

 

[Iaing]

Bob, you've got to spell certain words wrongly on here or the mods give you an infarction.

Are we talking drugs here?

 

[Snelly]

Yes they still get lines at some schools. My son had lines just two weeks ago.

I promised to stop trying to be funny once as my jokes were usually lost on people. Thing is they just keep coming to me!

I guess if they just make me laugh I should keep them to myself, I shall refrain from further attempts at humor in the future

I disagree with this, I am in favour of non-corporeal punishment only!

Side of the ruler on the back of your hand in primary school and the taws in secondary got my attention.
After a rowdy session in the rugby changing rooms the boys were offered 100 lines or two of the taws. Amazing how many 'tough' boys took the lines. Mind you the gym master could lay it on, ouch!

Parents at my grandsons school have rebelled about the amount of homework 5/6 year olds were bringing home.
