  Keith! Only caned once! Never caught again, what was your secret? I got caned three times (not doing science homework, running a betting ring, and I can't remember the third). All incidents were painful but didn't actually do me any harm, apart from a few bruises on the rear!
  
  I tend to agree with Bern on this, teachers trained properly in how to restrain and control children ought to be allowed to used those techniques. Harsher penalties for misbehaviour or disruptive behaviour should also be considered.
  
  The real problem I suspect though actually comes from the children of families with none or few social skills. Control and restraint won't work in every circumstance, and penalising the parents (always a good thing IMO) will probably be ineffectual too.
  
  Maybe just letting teachers bash the living daylights out of the miscreants has always been the better answer?
