Yes I too remember the 'get spanked/paddled at school - get spanked/whupped at home rule'! Sometimes the teacher or Principal would send a note home, other times they would not! But even when they did not there was always the worry that your mom or dad would find out about your offence and then, because you had hid this from them, there really would be 'hell to pay'!
