A middle school in Siberia has a new plan for dealing with
children who misbehave. If the problem can't be solved after monthly conversations with the local Commission for Children and Adolescents, businesses have agreed to release the child's father from work so that he can attend school with his child. The ideais that teachers will be left alone to teach, and Dad will be free to administer corporal punishment if he thinks it's needed. The idea probably wouldn't work in America, because in 13 million homes Dad is named Jennifer.
