no.but walking at recess is not the only way to control a child. actually, i don't think it will work for most kids at all....but there are lots of options teachers learn about when they go to school.

Would you rather your child be sent to the principal for discipline so that you can get a phone call every day instead of them doing a time out?

yes....if the only other option is physical and humilitating.

Discipline starts at a very young age and if it is not learned while they are young, good luck with them as teenagers and adults.
you are right....but good luck with them as teenagers anyway but again physical and humiliating discipline is not the only option.
