“I think when we talk about corporal punishment, and we have to think about our own children, and we are rather reluctant, it seems to me, to have other people administering punishment to our own children, because we are reluctant, it puts a special obligation on us to maintain order and to send children out from our homes who accept the idea of discipline. So I would not be for corporal punishment in the school, but I would be for very strong discipline at home so we don't place an unfair burden on our teachers.” PeopleThinkingChildrenIdeasHomeSeemsWould BeSchoolOrderStrongAcceptingTeacherSpecialDisciplineBurdenPunishmentObligationVery StrongUnfairReluctantCorporal Punishment Author:John F.

“The plain message conveyed by the new administration is that George W Bush's America is a Christian nation, and that non-Christians are welcome into the tent so long as they agree to accept their status as a tolerated minority rather than as fully equal citizens.
