The article by Joe Hadsall titled “School board member’s paddling proposal points to behavior problems” states school board member Steve Makoski said that he felt parents should do a better job teaching discipline to their children.
I suspect that many of the parents who are not teaching discipline to their children have not had the opportunity to learn how to do that.
I suggest the school board consider creating or partnering in a program offering training for families on how to teach discipline to children.
