PE teacher attacks 8-year-old boy

[Jennifer]

Oppsgal:

But what if the kids behave better in school than at home and only afraid of teachers but not parents?

Why in the first place did the parents allow the child to behave in such a manner?

This is what I meant by \"parents fail to carry out their duty\".

Such a child is a timebomb waiting to explode anytime anywhere. When this bomb explodes, the party to take action might be some other authority, eg sch or police.

sometimes is not because parents not discipline their kids, but the kids behave differently to different people.

Is like when you talk to parents and friend use different tones...and behave differently infront of them.

:idea: m gonna tell my boy kenna attack by your TEACHERS for whatever reasons....must :siam: defend onself against an attack, or attack in return. :stompfeet: l

:rotflmao: Let's all send our kids to learn self defence classes.

Sorry but I think the first lesson to teach the children is not to provoke the teacher with poor attitude or behaviour. Teachers are also human. If I have only one child and can feel like tearing my hair out on some days...I am sure the teachers have several bad hair days dealing with so many children when they test the limits. :slapshead:

Only parents can punish their own kids.

I believe in this too.

If parents have instilled the right values at home, there will be less disciplinary issues at schools & in the society.

When parents fail to carry out their duty, the society will hv to bear the consequences- sch bullies, gangs fights, etc.

I too think that teachers should not punish kids physically but other forms may still be acceptable. However, if parents do their duty at home to coach the children properly, no punishment is even necessary.

I have gone through primary sch days with teachers who abused their power in physically punishment, hence I don't believe that it worked and firmly believe that such punishment would do more harm than good. Kids can be punished in many forms including receiving 'pink slips' (practised in NYPS) and other disciplinary actions. What is most important is the lesson learnt at the end of the day which may not necessarily be taught by inflicting pain!

For me i don't mind teachers punish my kid if got a relevant reason. But to pull hair or bang head of kids or other violence is unacceptable.

I only accept smack hands, stand a corner pull ears, do push up, copy the sentence \"I will not do this again\" 1000 times.

I believe in not sparing the rod too. However, I won't accept teachers administering any form of corporal punishment on my kids. I can accept 罚站 for my kids. That's about it.

I used to kanna corporal punishment such as getting pinched by my primary school teachers for no justifiable reason. They were simply in bad mood that day! So NO WAY, teachers should not be allowed to administer corporal punishment to kids for whatever reasons. Only parents can punish their own kids.[/quote]
If 罚站 work on this boy, non of this would have happened.

It's certainly parents' duty to guide their children in terms of moral values, showing respect, humble, etc etc and this should start when they were toddlers.

On abusive teachers, I had personal experience with such teachers too. Kanna bruises on arms & waist. Yet I was too young & helpless to stand up to such unreasonable treatment

Heard of female chinese swimming coach of a primary school who has been punishing kids physically :spank: such as hitting with swim board or hitting with whistle etc., but these actions seem to be condoned by the parents :shock: .

I feel that sometimes corporal punishment is necessary. The old saying \"Spare the rod, spoil the child\" is still applicable. Sadly, many parents are overly indulgent and many young children become uncontrollable brats. In the end, some parents have to send this type of children away to Boys'/Girls' Homes. The unfortunate ones had to send their dead teens into the other world due to street fights/staring incidents.

This \"PE teacher vs problem child\" incident should serve to wake up those indulgent parents.

For those parents who do not hv the experience of being at the breaking point, it would be very hard to understand why the reaction of the PE teacher and very easy to fault the PE teacher.

Just my 2cts worth.

Is pulling the kid's hair & slapping the kid corporal punishment???? I don't think so!
This is plain hooligan behaviour which should NOT be condoned, indulgent parent or not!

This is different from a slap on the wrist or a cane on the buttocks (corporal punishment) for more serious offence by the school authority.

Sure - i agree with \"spare the rod, spoil the child\" but that rod should really (and ideally) be administered by the parents... and on case-by-case basis by the Principal (upon consultation with the Parents for more serious offence) but definitely not pulling of hair & slapping across the face - this is just unacceptable!

If we condone such a hooligan behaviour, can u imagine what type of society we'll be in when these kids become adults?

I shudder at that very thought!
