One of my staff threatened it to her little boy a few months’ back, but I persuaded her the Tescos’ PC police might not appreciate it. The other point you probably have to bear in mind is the silly obsession the gutter press has with paedos. Even the Sun readers probably expect the taking down of the child’s pants for a sound spanking will send messages flashing all over the net in Gary Glitter land!
Guilty means parent is ushered into a private room with a plush leather sofa. The parent either sits on same or bends brat over end of same & administers hand spanking. This is witnessed by one same-sex(as victim) panel member to ensure hand only used, and smacks do not exceed 6.
In the unlikely event of a 2nd offense, spanking for 12 smacks remains in a private room, but is broadcast live on CCTV all over the store!
