Yep, we're all winners in this case.
Mrs. Fritchen BROKE her paddle on my behind in first grade. I was the local hero for a few days.
Principal in high school decided to try it because I got in a fight. I got two weeks vacation for hitting him when he came at me with his paddle. Dad was the one that broke his paddle when he came to pick me up. I was kinda hoping he would break it on the guys bald head, but he used the desk. Benefit? They never called "DAD" again when I got into fights. MOM on the other hand... had those glowy eyes.....
