AMA Backs Abolition of Corporal Punishment in Schools
The American Medical Association voted to oppose corporal punishment in schools, calling it ineffective and risky. The policy, approved by the 370-member House of Delegates, aligns with other groups like the National Education Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics in opposing paddling as a disciplinary method. Critics note teachers favor it, but AMA cites lack of behavioral improvement and seeks well grounded study and alternatives.
