Comment on I have seen a lot of movies where the Catholic School Nuns smack a students hand for being disruptive or something is this a trope or a real something? Like most notable in Blues Brothers

We lived in a small town suburb of Memphis in Mississippi in the 1980’s. I’d heard about what some of the Sisters did to students from friends that weren’t southern baptists. I proceeded to call them out at the Mall. I was young and have no idea if those nuns were even associated with the Catholic school I’d heard horror stories from. My mom was so apologetic. This husky & tall for his age ten year old ginger headed Martin Luther of my own design delivered my own Theses I felt badass. My mother wanted to strangle me. Forty plus years later she shares it as the funniest thing I ever did as a child.
