LOL.....in primary schools, boys that cannot get along with boys but turn to girls for freindship will be ostracized. Period.
My guess is, in a co-ed school, boys that cannot seem to form friendship with other boys can turn to girls for friendship while girls who find other groups of girls to be gossipy and or not their 'kind', can turn to boys for friendship. hence, the chances of being 'alone' is reduced and i think bullies usually don't bother those who move around in groups.ksi:
When there are mixed genders, do children learn how to tolerate better? Just a thought.... -
good idea! let them do social work to learn from mmistakes

I think there is no need to shame the parents but agree that there should be many creative ways to educate and inculcate these children to be gentle and loving in nature.
They should be punished, counselled and then given the chance to experience being bullied 1st hand! That should do the trick. Children are a reflection of their parents. So may be parents should be \"shamed\" too!Quintessential Mum:
[quote=\"3Boys\"]So, what is the predominant sentiment here then? At 7 y.o. should the bullies be punished severely, or given some form of counselling and cut some slack?
Why not send these bullies to look after handicapped children or little animals?[/quote] -

Don't be too surprised. Because looking after kids before assemblies don't contribute to the teachers' KPI, no teachers want to get too much of that duty. They are all busy in the teachers room thinking about how to conceive another innovative way to improve the children score in PSLE. And the principal, well...he/she can't force the teachers to do stuff that don't contribute to their promotion, otherwise, the pricipal's own KPI will be affected too.
Perhaps the report is a bit flawed... puzzles me as well.mintcc:
after reading the news also can't help but wonder :?
Where are the teachers? 5 kids beat up another one in school grounds right before assembly and no one stop them?
P1 kid can run out of school during school hours? :!:
Even when I was in P1 many many years ago the school gates are guarded by prefect before assembly and locked after that. There will always be teachers around during assembly
Can run around in sch and get beaten up... and no teachers around? -

Period.[/quote]it is better to be ostracized by an unworthy bunch of male school mates than force oneself to befriend them for the sake of peer pressure. that is my take. i got ostracized in my pri sch before (those usual 'which girl should you support' type of decision that i was forced to make; the fact is i don't care and chose the lesser popular one to get them off my back), so what the heck!

Bullying is ye olde.
My parents have never beaten us (my older brother and I).
I have witnessed public caning during my school daze.
My older brother was bullied in primary school, I stood up for him by punching the older boy in the eye, breaking his glasses in the event. My parents made me apologised to the bully and his parents, and took money out of my allowance to provision for a new pair of glasses for the bully. I was 10 years old.
Last month, I took my DD (1-year old) to the playroom in our estate. An older girl (about 3 or 4 years old) saw DD’s bike and proceeded to push DD off her bike so as to claim it for her own. Both the older girl’s grandmother and maid were present. The maid ignored DD who was on the floor and I, who had rush to help DD up. The maid then pushed the older girl on DD’s bike as if it was common property. The older girl’s grandmother looked at DD and I and said:" 不跌倒不长大!" I retorted:"被推倒可不一样!"

guess it really comes down to the parents/family … if they ‘love’ the kids so much that they totally dont see them doing any wrong … then something is wrong already
-
It is this kind of grandparents that causes some children to be bullies. Tsk tsk tsk.
-
I still remembered during a house warming occasion while the children were playing the game and a grandfather told my nephew to let his grandson win the game otherwise his grandson would be upset.

Nowaday, grandparents are in very difficult situation. Many DS and DD are making use of their parents to look after their own kids. But when even the slightest thing gone wrong, they will show their unhappy faces. How will the grand-nanny and daddy dare to to touch these young princes and princesses?
