Tom Brown's caning

Here an old, ugly habit of British public schools.
But this film is on a novel in 19th century, so don't worry about it English boys and girls!

Alex Pettyfer is soooooooooo cute <3 Who cares if he's a bad boy?

If they were still doing this today, I'll bet:

1) The UK wouldn't have a chav problem

2) The riots wouldn't have happened

caning is much needed in the philippines so that our people will learn how to behave!

Caning and paddling children is an archaic practice from times gone by. Violence begets violence no matter what form it wraps itself in. I can only imagine the type of people who want to embrace this ugly custom once more.

@ProfessorxVile and i bet these days the kids would just refuse.

@IronBrig4 The top performing US schools don't use corporal punishment (whereas the worst do). It's also worth mentioning that in in the days when British schools were allowed to use the tawse (leather strap used in Scottish schools) or caning, gaining "cred with your peeps" involved taking your punishment without crying. If anything it actually toughened "hard" types and as the author Roald Dahl said in the first part of his autobiography, it was actually harmful to weaker children.

Caning ended in the UK in 1986 (the year I left school) and yes, I have noticed that behaviour among the young has worsened.
