I was caned twice at my Wiltshire (English) senior school in the mid-eighties and my word it hurt. I should have learned after my 1st smoking offense (2 on my hand) but didn’t. I knew what was coming 2nd time and the wait outside the head office was indescribable. This time it was 3 on my behind and lots of tears…I no longer smoke! Paddling or caning should be legal on both sides of the pond for society’s sake. They just have no respect anymore.
