Discipline
Discipline
So then the second question, what disciplinary measures should be used? Well
on the extreme end of punishments we have suspension and expulsion, which
honestly have never made too much sense to me. We punish kids who
misbehave in school by taking them out of school? It only limits their education
further, makes them upset at the system, and probably makes them happy
because of course they don’t want to be in school. Some kids might even brag
about getting suspended. And there is also the issue that kids who getting
suspended or expelled are more likely to get involved in the juvenile justice
system. Many people are now arguing for negative forms of punishment by
extremely limited, and rather use methods of counseling and restorative justice
practices.
