My elementary school teacher always stuck me out in the hall.
My elementary school prinicipal whipped my butt and called my Mom.
My Dad whipped my butt again when I got home.
My Jr High Asst Principal whipped my butt.

I turned out great.
The only "spanking" I got in school was in my senior year of high school. I probably could have taken the principal but that would have meant going "down town" for an extended duration. The really bad guys were "down town" and I didn't want no part of that.
BTW, I agree with you in calling the law on the little miscreants.
