It's fifty fifty actually. I remember when I was in Standard 8 and we were to sit the final exam, I dropped from position 5 to position 20 in my class (Of 72). After the release of the results, they lined up the whole class and thrashed the whole class, subject by subject (We did 7 subjects). 9 teachers were doing the thrashing and you had to get from one teacher to the other to receive your thrashing. It started at 8 in the morning and ended at 10. We would sing and we got thrashed in a train-like movement.That's terrible!

In the next exams, I emerged second in class. The guy who was always top seemed impossible to beat. Sometimes, kids need a little caning for them to take education seriously.
Having said that, if this boy can't add at that age, then beating him won't help. It needs a radical approach to help the boy - something that I don't know whether the school has the resources for.
I agree. Children could get scarred for life.How cruel of her qumayada! 0.o
Harsh physical punishment only increases the risk of mental disorders. If the child has learning difficulties extra support is a must; different teaching method / focusing on the areas that need improvement.
