The ACLU and Human Rights Watch found that in Texas and Mississippi children ranging in age from 3 to 19 years old are routinely physically punished for minor infractions such as chewing gum, talking back to a teacher, or violating the dress code, as well as for more serious transgressions such as fighting.

Guess old practices die hard (its a pretty safe bet that its not rich white kids who are being beat down). Perhaps all those folks concerned about modern day slavery should take a look at this real issue.
