Missouri schools are reinstituting corporal punishment against kids with a paddle. This violates the rights of the kid and it sets another precedent against bodily autonomy. The state is claiming the right to hit your kids.

For some more context, when I was in my 20s I decided I’d never have kids because I didn’t want to have to spank them. My dad always said if you truly love your kids you’ll spank them to keep them from sinning. His parents beat him, and in his mind he was doing it right and not being abusive.
I have a lot of issues and it took a lot of time to unlearn that mindset. I have a daughter now and she’s great! She’s also exhausting but we’ve never spanked her and never will.
