Pussycat

Blessed are the pussycats is my motto.

Now I don't know if you deserve to be blessed but you you seem to have my sentiments.

There seems to be a conflict arising about how to deal with social discord.

Compassion appears to have it's short comings as does more severe rulings.

I feel that that parental backing up of school discipline seems to be absent. Parents seem to want to challenge school discipline rather that reinforce it.

We all know that mistakes can be made by those in authority but unless they are grossly unjust they should be reinforced.

I was caned at school once or twice unjustly, but I am not disturbed by it, and feel that corporal punishment is a quick way of dealing with misdemeanours. I don't believe it has to be that remedy but see no great harm in it either.
