What I wanted to do was put into context an extremely rare incident with all too common adult misdemeanours.

Punishing children with violent means never changes their behaviour for the better.
Which is what I have been ranting about. (Hell this is a rant thread after all)

Good on you for forging ahead with an enlightened point of view against the flow of general opinion.

I do agree with you that eyeballing and talking to recalcitrant school children is a good approach. Some kids have never had any attention paid to them by anyone, nor have they been confronted for their bad choices. Ignoring or simply punishing bad behaviour is no different to what they get at home so it has no effect. They will grow up to be trouble for us all.

Better to nip it in the bud if you can.

Personally I think some children are so damaged by the age of 13 that we have to take a hard line to protect the rest of society. YT should not have had to endure an attack or worry that it will happen again.

Finally KiWiP, can I suggest you ignore the abuse if you want to get your points across. There are people reading who will be interested and reconsider their gut reaction.

We all enjoy cut and thrust on KB, but when the topic is serious, returning the serves simply distracts from what you have to say.
