I must say that upon first glance, I expected this article to go a little more hand-in-hand with the above post. Not to be, however. Sorry D-Wayne. Taiwan will celebrate International Spank Out Day this April 29th. It was established to encourage the end of corporal punishment by parents and teachers. So instead of "smacking on impulse", smackgivers are encouraged to make a phone call (to whom, it doesn't say, but I suggest VINCENT or Transvestite Joyce) or exchange "pithy one-liners."
Minister of Education Tu Cheng-sheng (杜正勝) offered this priceless piece of pith, "Respect and understand children to avoid treating them violently." I think the MofE needs a refresher on the meaning of pithy - short, direct, memorable. Then again, he was probably speaking in Chinese and everything in Chinese is pithy. If he was speaking in Taiwanese than it was probably just plain loud as heck.
