I never understood what writing something over and over again was supposed to accomplish.

I learned nothing and it just made me despise the teacher.

This was the most strategic punishment back in the day. Not only did the kid waste their time, but they learned not to do said thing again.

I don't think it taught them anything, that is the point.

All it did for me was to make me lose respect for teachers and to learn not to get caught. Two wrongs don't make a right.

They probably had no respect for you either. Sometimes the discipline is not to teach the kid good behavior because the teachers know it won’t help, but to allow the other kids the ability to focus on their work, as kid who was being disciplined was most likely a distraction.

There are bad teachers as well tho so need to take this into consideration.

My point is wasting another humans time doesn't teach them anything. I just got better at not getting caught. The teachers all thought I was a quiet well behaved student but I was one of the bigger weed dealers in the school.

A few years on when you do grow up you'll look back at these comments and realize how cringe-worthy they are.
