Am going into hiding now and will be back when the bullets have passed.
I think its been said before many times on here derek, by people from my age group that it didn't do use any harm. Since they did away with punishment in schools everything has gone belly up, there is no deterrent any more, kids can talk to teachers anyway they want, because they've got rights. When I was at school you earned your rights, and it held me in good stead for life after school, now its just a joke
