Mission schooling replaced Pacific communal-kin child-rearing with the cane and nuclear family.

Evidence

The common pattern across all Pacific mission-school systems: the Anglo-Protestant (or Catholic) pedagogical-disciplinary framework was deployed on the pre-contact Pacific child-rearing baseline Episode 81 documented. The cane replaced the whānau’s verbal-and-shame-based discipline. The mission school replaced the communal age-set education. The nuclear-family model replaced the extended-kin ohana/aiga/whānau model. — , The Rod and the Child, 5285
