Reply to comment by arrogant_ambassador in Ban Corporal Punishment in Private Schools, New York Lawmakers Say by _Maxolotl

This really serves to highlight how backwards, abusive and corrupt some yeshivas are and have been allowed to be. Pass the law.

Sure pass the law but don’t limit focus to just yeshivas.

The focus isn't limited. It includes any private school that uses corporal punishment on kids, not just yeshivas who do. If 99.9% of the schools this touches are a certain type of school, perhaps some soul searching must be done. It also must be said that not all yeshivas are like this. Some are amazing institutes of learning that treat kids with respect they deserve.
