Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

Closest we had in public school in Kentucky was a form sent home at the beginning of each year that your parents would sign, stating whether or not the school was allowed to use "corporal punishment" (aka spanking or paddling) on you.
But yeah, parents in some (all?) states in the USA have wide latitude over their kids in ways I don't agree with.
The worst that I ever had to put up with was a teacher that liked it through pieces of chalk its people who were talking in class, and he aimed to miss.
