Corporal punishment is here to stay in Rapides Parish public schools, and members of the Disciplinary Policy Review Committee on Wednesday discussed ways parents can inform a principal if they don't want their children paddled for infractions.

Smith said the court system has taken discipline out of the home.
"Parents are scared of being reported for child abuse that they can't discipline their kids at home," she said. "Paddling is not child abuse, but good firm discipline. Sometimes the only discipline kids get is when they are in the classrooms."
