Wow ! Your statement about knowing people etc...... is somewhat surreal.
Having confidence knocked out of them is certainly an exaggeration or a
distortion of the facts.


You don't know who I am talking about, so your statement is based on
ignorance of the facts. The most you can legitimately say is that your
experience is different from mine.


You are absolutely correct - I do not know the people to which you refer.
However to say that they went to a school with corporal punishmentnet turned
them from bright confident children into adults having had the confidence
knocked out of them suggests they were bullied rather fhan suffered from the
occasional cane or slipper for some minor lapse in their normally impeccable
behaviour.
Come now, I can't believe that the tag "Corporal punishment" applied the to
the school could possibly cause the effect you report without the school
being referred to some authority to consider its suitablilty as a centre of
education.

If not entirely correct, your satement certainly describes the
unsatisfactory eduction of some people in most colourful terms
