Just slap us?

Is it just me who think that kids should be slapped to make them behave, to make them think twice about trying to be one of those bullying little a*seholes. I'm 14 so this rule would apply to me too, but I'm sick of being a teenanger and being stereo typed as one of those stupid idiots. Not all teens are thick enough to carry knives and go around mugging for the fun of it. My dad used to slap me, my brother and my sister and we all turned out alright enough to know how to respect other people. Those old punishments used in schools in countries like India and Kenya help stop children misbehaving and doing stuff wrong. Why not use them here? Or are we just going to complain about these minority of kids and do nothing until it spreads into the rest of us. If people complain that they don't want to be slapped, they could just behave to stop it from happening. It's not about rights, it's about common sense.
