<p>“I for one am proud of this young lady’s strength in not allowing herself to be humiliated in this way, as opposed to the decision made by her classmates. I think that in allowing someone to punish you in such a way, you are going against you rights as a free human, and that by willingly allowing yourself to be touched in this way, you are also learning that it is alright for something like this to happen in disciplinary circumstances throughout the rest of your life. Should they be placed in an abusive situation (relationship for instance) where they are being verbally AND physically abused, if their partner makes them feel that they are in the wrong, they will very likely justify the physical abuse as being deserved as punishment.”</p>
<p>Bravo Premed4western—what an important insight about abusive relationships. I am proud of the fact that you can also applaud this young woman for what really matters. You have learned things that took many of us much longer to learn…</p>
