It is legal in Tennessee and 18 other states to “punish” children in schools with physical punishment, usually paddles with disastrous results. Disabled, autistic and minority children are disproportionately paddled and it is a civil rights issue. US Congress over the past few years has rejected several proposed bills to make it illegal and is currently ignoring a current proposed bill. The ACE program with Dr Afifi has deemed spanking an adverse childhood experience. Can leaders of the ACE programs advocate to Congress to make it illegal.
