Yeah I dunno about this one. Public schools and the middle class have been squeezed pretty hard the past 30 years. The unfortunate events we hear about far too often, seem to keep getting worse. It never occurred or even was something on my radar growing up.
Also, we have a constant stream of news telling us all the bad things. It's hard to detach from it.
Also, a few generations ago it was acceptable for a teacher to physically discipline the children with a wooden paddle
“That’s a paddlin”
