I could see a reverse effect happening, whereby the parents now just give the kid anything and everything that he/she wants, just to keep the little turd placated. I think, however, that those cases would be few and far between.
I agree this could happen, but the kid would have to be pretty bright. Also as with all things there would be descretion at all levels. Teachers are pretty good about reading parents and how active/inactive and good/bad they are at their duty as parents. If I were a teacher and I believed the parents were actively doing everything they could to help the kid then I wouldn't push for them to spend the night in jail.
