                Unsupervised Beatings At School Could Prevent
                ADHD In Britain's Youngsters, Claim Over-60sby Danny Soz
 People in the
                UK aged 60 or over are wholly convinced that
                severe beatings at school would almost certainly
                go a long way to eradicating the recent epidemic
                of kids who are being diagnosed with Attention
                Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. A staggering
                99 percent of those questioned who were born in
                the mid-50s or earlier, when beatings at school
                were commonplace, were firmly convinced that an
                unsupervised, wild thrashing from a burly male
                teacher in a stock cupboard using a cane or a
                large slipper would wholly eradicate ADHD
                overnight. When presented
                with the findings, the Department of Education
                gave a guarded response last night: "Listen,
                we'd like nothing better than to lift the ban on
                corporal punishment so that some of these little
                shits with so called behavioural issues could
                have their ADHD eradicated by means of a really
                good, unsupervised pounding, but we're shit-scared
                of being sued by the parents. "Maybe,
                if they'd been subjected to the odd sadistic
                larruping in a cupboard themselves back in the
                day they wouldn't be so bloody litigious and soft" In other
                related news, the former leader of the United
                Kingdom Independence Party, Nigel Farage, has
                called for all non-white pupils at Britain's
                secondary schools to be forced to recite the
                entire works of William Shakespeare backwards in
                Latin or face being thrown to the school lion. |
