<![CDATA[Pri 1 child attacked by 5 classmates]]>This news shocked me bad :!: Why are the children so violent these days, as young as 7 years old?


Primary 1 student attacked by 5 classmatesEdvantage | Mon Nov 22 2010

They kicked and punched him after he asked them to stop calling him names.
A student suffered a bruise and scratches after being kicked, and punched by his classmates in a school last week, reported the New Paper.

While the injuries in the latest bullying incident may seem trivial, what raised eyebrows is that the boy and his attackers were only seven.

The primary 1 student ran out of the school crying after the attack, and was missing for two hours before he was finally found.

He claimed he was often taunted in school, and called names like \"loser\" and \"idiot\", but this is the worst attack so far. In July, the Sunday Times reported that bullying has become a growing concern among educators here.

The school is currently investigating how the fight started and will transfer the boy to another class next year. But his mother told The New Paper her son is still traumatised by the incident.

There is a subtle difference. These chopper wielding youths can be solved easily by police. But neighbours, the Joo Chiat daughter-father duo type, who are full of themselves and arrogant will be nightmare that never seem to end.......Police can't solve because they don't really try to injure you, not really a crime, the kind of things they say and do that will irritate you. Even court cannot solve....and your nightmare can just continue...

:offtopic:

I've had the pleasure of living in both pte and hdb neighbourhoods and I will say, there are all sorts of people in both neighbourhoods. I expected my HDB neighbour to be more approachable and neighbourly, well NOT. I don't expect to see the condo lift being vandalised but it was. So cannot say either is better or worse both have their fair share of goods and bads.

I am starting to feel hesitant shifting to a private estate. Though HDB flat is less comfortable and luxurious, HDB folks seems mostly more decent and reasonable (it seems so far...)

WeiHan:
For an adult to just carry a 4 years old out of the bike with anger is itself a violent tendency. Even though you don't injure the child in anyway by doing that, but you are using your superiority in strength to resolve the issue.

Normally with kids, my stand is this:
Don't TOUCH them unless it involves immediate danger involving your kids' or your personal safety.

I've ever witnessed a scene at the playground:
Maid A taking care of Girl A (3-4yo) and Boy A (7-8yo).
Maid B taking care of Girl B (2-3yo).

Girl A pushed Girl B on the floor (I think it was an accident). Maid B rushed over to check Girl B.
Then Boy A came over and knocked into Girl A on his bicycle.
Girl A was injured. Then Maid A tell Girl A & Boy A to cook up a story and say is Maid B who injured Girl A because she pushed Girl B on the floor.

End up, Maid A call her employer who rushed over and scolded Maid B and insisted that Maid B pay 'damages' for 'disfiguring' her daughter's knees (they were bleeding).

BTW, the police was called in to 'settle' the issue.

And yes, it happened at the neighbourhod playground in a private estate.

When I were still staying at my mum's place, we have a new inconsiderate neighbour living upstairs. Everytime, bring wet clothes out to dry. There was once my HANDWASH clothes was about to dry, upstairs neighbour hang all their wet laundry out as if it's raining. I were real mad, just shout from the window saying \"Don't be inconsiderate, rinse your clothes dry before hanging out\".

When it happened again! I looked out of the window, shouted the same thing. Then went upstairs, maid open the door, asked for the owner. Waited so long never come out, went to the staircases (can see their kitchen), saw the maid and called her saying\" I thought you went to call ur mum?\" Maid quickly ran to close the front door; her mum was at home. I were so angry, I keep pressing the door bell. They simply ignore it. I simply talk louder outside and say \"Pls be more considerate, stop hanging out your wet panties, bra and mop out.\"

All these still turn to deaf ears. I simply print out 2 copies of notice, one for the 1st level lift another for their level. Who knows, they remove the notice within half a day or less. After that, they no longer hang out wet clothes to dry. :celebrate:

Note: Even my handwash clothes is much more dry than her clothes. If it's slightly wet, I will take a chair and look out of my window to see are there any neighbours below me drying their clothes before I hang out mine. :love:

Just ignore them, they are just a bunch of bullies/ignorant people.
Behaviours already indicated it... start from the old generation.

They don't even know that's how a 8mths old baby talk, that show how ignorant they really are.

One time I was taking a walk with DD and we bumped into the little girl and her grandmother walking their dog. I pointed to the dog and DD said excitedly:\"dog, dog.\" I said:\"Yes darling, dog dog.\" The grandmother then said to me:\"Teach your baby the right thing. It's \"dog\" and not \"dog dog\". Or she will talk like a silly girl.\" DD was 8 months young. I was :x

If both granny and maid turn to deaf ears of not returning, I'll still proceed to carry her off the bike myself. Worst still, if their attitude sucks. All the more I will do it. 😛

It is starting to sound like they are the Joo Chiat's daughter-father duo type. Becareful that they will make your stay as their neighbour totally unbearable.

Another time, I was nursing DD in our room. DH caught the little girl's older brother, a young teen (maybe 12-14 yearsold?) peeping into our room. The audacious little pervert! Our room is on the second floor. He'd have to climb onto our roof to access our room window! Both DH & I were :x :x :x :x

I hate to say this but I think the whole family same same.

I hope I am not making a sweeping statement. It seems that there are alot of difficult personailty in landed property. Still remember that Joo Chiat daughter-father duo. I dont' encounter this problem in the HDB's playground. But of course there are rough children too.

This instigator has some leadership quality here. 😛 Though applied wrongly lah.


Caning will not solve the problem. The pain that they feel will soon be forgotten. They are only in P1 now so there is a good chance that if guided properly, they will turn out well. Most important of all will be how the parents handle these kids going forward.

Oh no, what kind of grandma is that? Why should she interfere with what you are teaching YOUR child? I can only say that both kids 没家教, even the grandma also got issues. Did you guys haul the boy back to his home? I bet if he had fallen off your roof, the grandma will make a lot of noise. :!:

Hi duriz


I would have shouted at that maid ... \"Hey, you come back. Do you think you own that bike?\"

To the grandmother:\"Shall I push your granddaughter on the floor and say the same time?\" At least apologize la, make such a remark.
duriz:

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!\"
