As a member of probably the last generation of kids who were regularly paddled in school, I think they need to go back to corporal punishment. We started getting paddled in fourth grade (before then we got hit with switches), and it was remarkably effective in keeping boys in line. The basic problem is that boys are encouraged to be cut-ups and to disobey authority figures, even at an early age. The willingness to do so determines your pecking order, and also girls like bad boys. I know that when I went to junior high school and high school, there is no way in HELL that I would have shown up for detention, because if I had I would have gone to the bottom of the pecking order (only wimps showed up for detention). Girls are more malleable, but the only thing that teenage boys respect is force. Take the corporal punishment out of schools, and you are guaranteed mayhem.
