Wolfgang Blaschka is seen during an interview in Munich, southern Germany, on Thursday, March 11, 2010. Wolfgang Blaschka, who was a student at the Domspatzen Preschool in Pielenhofen, talked with journalists of the Associated Press. Wolfgang Blaschka told The Associated Press that while he was a student at the Etterzhausen school just outside Regensburg, corporate punishment was the rule, not the exception. German educators sharply criticized Roman Catholic church officials on Thursday for their handling of a spiraling child abuse scandal - comments that came a day before the country's highest bishop was to meet Pope Benedict XVI in Rome. The criticism came as more victims of the alleged abuse stepped forward, including a one-time member of the famed all-boys choir that was led by the Rev. Georg Ratzinger, the pope's brother, from 1964-1994. (AP Photo/Jens Meyer)AP - The Roman Catholic bishops in Pope Benedict XVI’s native Bavaria sought Tuesday to deal with a sexual abuse scandal whose ever-widening scope has left church leaders baffled.
