<![CDATA[Schools should take serious action against student intimacy?]]>I read with nervousness how children today have become more and more bold in their actions in public.


http://www.asiaone.com/News/Education/Story/A1Story20100203-196412.html

I always believe there is an appropriate time and place for appropriate actions but it seems that children today lost or never developed that discernment at all.

Personally I am strongly against students showing intimacy in public especially in SCHOOL UNIFORMS whether same school or different schools. I feel that all schools should take a very serious view on this to deter such inappropriate behaviour. Hopefully in the eventuality it deters such behaviour totally whether publicly or privately as they are also age-inappropriate to engage in such activities. Students who do this not only showing disrespect to self but to everyone else around as well.

Of course this is the last-stage deterant as it should always start with values teaching from parents.

As parents, what do you think the school can do?

Actually, I also drop notes to other principals (albeit anonymous, and/or not so strongly worded) if I see the pupils misbehaving. But that's just me.

There should be more people like you. This Singaporean boh chup attitude really has to change...

To me, the school's name is important. 6 years for me in that school (and the affiliated JC) is a major part of my life - and an extremely wonderful time too! I take pride in being part of the school and :nunchuk: anyone who brings ill-repute by misbehaving in school uniform :x .
Yes yes pride in self and pride in school is very important. Students today seems lacking in this ah? :?

Anyway you are a good community service person...Bravo.

Once you are in school uniform, you are representing the school. School has every rights to take action and I feel they should. Give warning, counselling, call parents in etc.


On the other hand, when you are not in school uniform, you are representing yourself and your parents. What image are you giving to others, depends on your behaviours.
daisyt, I totally agree with you. I'm one of those ex-students who would write email or letters to the principal or disciplinary mistress/master to complain about either unbecomming PDA (public displays of affection) or a student wearing the school uniform in an unsuitable manner.

The media and their peers are so influential now, we parents must be proactive in claiming our children. Our values, our beliefs must be in them, not the world's.
So a two-prong effort is required from both parents and school.

Parents have blind spots, so do school. Together, the blind spots are reduced. In fact, I like what an ex-principal said to me...\"I love everyone to be my eyes around, whether in school or outside, if not I would not know how to run my school effectively. \"

Cute meh? Drives me nuts. This afternoon, he came back from school, played the piano. I was hovering around, then decided to take a peek at KSP. I came down, he told me off saying that I should spend more time with him, that he managed to play the new notes that teacher doesn't teach & I still owe him bla bla bla bla. When my husband laughed, ds turned to him & continue \"You also the same. Always on the pc, bla bla bla bla\".

Back to topic, morale values should be a main subject in pri & sec schools. I judge how successful a person is not by knowledge or money. Its the character and selfless heart. Too bad, i haven gain that enlightenment yet. I just told dd, i am not the best mum but i am trying my best to be a good one. Nobody can be the best because how one define what is best?

I would say best effort is good enough. :celebrate:

I think it depends on the phase and the subject matter.
When younger I \"llls\" lesser, but older seems to have more things to \"llls\" about....hopefully this phase can pass quickly. Subject matter also important. Some things my dd \"llls\" me and some things I \"llls\" her.
Like sleeping early, she will \"llls\" me, even bring me my pj to change into every night. :roll:

[quote=\"ks2me\"]Yes I think sometimes in public, I may appear like a 'lor-li-lor-sor' mum, taking great pains to explain learnings from what we see. But I believe in the long run, these impressions of 'lor-li-lor-so' mum would turn into good trainings she got when she was young. 😉 Honestly, I also prefer to see parents that teach their children, even though sometimes may be ugly but at least I feel that the children get corrected on the spot rather than delayed and forgotten.
