[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 406531, member: 1169"] It appears that corporal punishment is still legal in Florida: [url]http://school.familyeducation.com/classroom-discipline/resource/38377.html[/url] However, I would send them a certified letter stating that they do not have permission to strike your child. If they do, take him straight to his pediatrician and have them call DCFS on the school if there is even a hint of a bruise. I taught in a school that still allowed corporal punishment but the prinicpal was very clear that any teacher that chose to use corporal punishment was on their own -- that if the child (big huge high school boys) struck back it would be considered self-defense and not punished and that if a parent sued us, the school would not provide attorneys. (We had a very old school board that believed in 'spare the rod spoil the child' but the rest of us lived in this century and no one EVER hit a student). [/QUOTE]
