Sorry Keith you got it wrong mate.Bring back the birch,bring back hanging,allow people to punish their kids when they do wrong.
True story,my youngest lasses eldest was playing her up,he got a warning,then fortunately got his last,his reply was " if you hit me i'll phone the poice",her reply to that was " you had better phone for an ambulance first because you'll need one"
Here endeth the lesson.
