ST 23/8 Teacher cuts pupil's hair, mum files police report
-
superksmum:
actually the teachers were saving the kids from being penalised at PSLE Oral - topic of discussion was school rules. If the kids go in with evidence of flouting the school rules and still non-chalant and defiant, probably they don't even know how to discuss the topics and sure to flop. Perhaps the teachers were hinting to the kids going in for the oral -- the topic is school rules......don't break it !!Personally, I would agreed that it is not right for the teacher to trim the boy's hair, especially before the PSLE oral. Of course, if such senario happened I would be extremely angry with the teacher. However, I found it exaggerating for the mother to report it to the police, as it is not a criminal offence.
In my child's school, the fringe of a girl was also trimmed by the teacher minutes before PSLE oral. Althought, she was upset but she was graceful enough to admit that it is her fault and that she has learnt a lesson.
Shouldn't we uphold our image no matter where we are. I always remind my kids that others will observe how you behave when we are out. It reflect how the parents impart their value and believes to the kids.
It is always our duty, as a parent to guide and check on our child. I would never leave a chance for it to happen to my kids. I will always ask them to reflect on the themselves before pointing fingers at others. We will not be with them forever, they have to learn to grow up.
okay okay just my conspiracy theory with benefit of hindsight -

Oooops! Sorry, Chief, my bad... :salute: -
Initially when dd’s school implemented the new fringe up rule for the girls, many of them were unhappy. The school was very persistance and P personally conducted many checks. Slowly, dd even appreciated this new rule that during weekend, she would also fringe up. She has get used to it and find uncomfortable with fringe down.
Before the rules, you can see funny fringe style eg. the curry puff fringe and some are quite ah lian look, esp among the senior high girls. This fringe up make every girls look neater and fresh.
If it is not something unreasonable and for the good of the kids, why not?
Of course sometimes these teens are rebellion, so parents have to explain to them and make them understand mah and not encourage to go against the school rules… -

For or against, it is subjective.
But, here’s something for everyone to ponder over.
Rules and regulations are set as it put a system in place where everyone know what is expected. It also ensure that everyone know the boundaries to be CIVILIZED. If any are broken, it allows those that don’t follow TO LEARN that there are consequences for their actions.
By enrolling in a school, the stakeholders unanimously agree to abide by its’ rules and regulations. Therefore, any punishments mete out when rules are flouted should be accepted and not challenged. If parent starts to challenge it, what message are they bringing across their child?
For those who have watched CSI Las Vegas Season 7, Episode 4 : Fannysmacking. You would know the whole story.
For those who don’t, I would like to share what was being said by Gil Grissom.
The truth is, a moral compass can only point you in the right direction, it can’t make you go there. Our culture preaches that you shouldn’t be ashamed of anything you do anymore. And unfortunately this city is built on the principle that there’s no such thing as guilt. "Do whatever you want, we won’t tell." So without a conscience, there’s nothing to stop you from killing someone. And evidently you don’t even have to feel bad about it.
Though it is a bit far-fetched to link it together but I can’t help but feel that our society might degenerate to such a state if we continue to have parents who feel that rules and regulations are made to be broken and there are no consequences for not following. -
