In the US, naughty schoolchildren decided to beat with a shovel.

The Cassville School District in Missouri has decided to reinstate corporal punishment for students that was abolished in 2001. New disciplinary measures were proposed by the parents - they did not like the option of suspension from lessons. Flogging will be the last resort. Only the director can beat children in the presence of a witness who is not a student of the school. You can’t hit the face and head, only the buttocks. Junior students will receive 1-2 slaps, high school students - up to 3. Parents who want their children to be beaten must sign an agreement - the form will be drawn up by the school administration.
