    Some of you seem to have a skewed idea of what "abuse" is.
    The students are responsible for following the established
    rules or they suffer the punishment. They are always free to
    change schools if their families so desire.
    For two years under one PE coach, we were required to run
    laps until we vomited. Although unpleasant, not one student
    was harmed because of this "abuse.
