What's the worst disciplinary action did you receive from a teacher?

There's one teacher I could not forget because she forced us to eat fresh hot chili called "labuyo" and she did not allow any of us to drink water. That was our group's punishment for being noisy/talkative. How about you? What are your unforgettable experience with a teacher?

Wow! That's absolutely horrible! I can't believe that! I live in America..And in this day & age, "corpal" punishment is NOT accepted. It used to be.. like at least 5-6 decades ago, but isn't acceptable and/or LEGAL anymore. So my "worst experience" pales in comparison to yours, but here it is: one of my teachers held me back after class to YELL at me and CURSE at me (I was 7 at the time!) that my handwriting wasn't as neat as it should have been on a certain assignment. I remember I started crying and ran out. Teachers should be like MENTORS, and guide you through positivity - not curse at you (or make you eat hot peppers! or harm you in any way). I can't believe that stuff is still legal in some places.

Hi maezee. We were eight years old then so most of her punishments really horrified us. I'm sure about 60% to 80% of her students could not forget her up to now. haha. Hi cream97. Here in our country, home-schooling is not that affordable yet. Most of the time, rich families avail of these services for security reasons. I've heard that these are mostly availed also by students who are athletes, celebrities and those with disabilities. Most parents here still prefers the regular type of schooling for their children.
