wow... nice teacher they have, should have fired her

if she is in sec 4, i confirm say "come if u dare"

SBS n SMRT SG

attrocious,..........cut off ears is certainly not a permissible act...

lianamaster SG

Being a teacher is also very stressful one leh...

But she shouldn't do this. There's other soft approaches to handle this.

Hanor, I would think threatening to cut off his kuku bird was more appropriate.

So much for your kind advice.

aiyah, shld teach the boy not to be scared. we all when small kena bully by cher cause no one teach us how to deal with these got-tax-payers-then-can-employ-and-waste-tax-money teachers, so now we shld teach them. If the teacher so clever out from uni, why go teach pri sch?

Although the teacher had done wrong in this case, this post reeks of more disrespect for teachers in general.

Little wonder why teachers are forever in shortage... Many quit as soon as their bond breaks probably because of students with such mentality... Such behaviour and mindset can really destroy the passion of many good teachers...

A noble profession that is being looked down upon by kids... Ingratitude at its most atrocious... One of the main reasons why I will never ever be a school teacher...

SBS n SMRT SG

Not to mention that attitudes of parents these days help fuel such mindset in kids... such that they somehow know they're 'untouchable'.

Being a teacher... not on my watch either.

Kids tend to have a lack of respect for authority. The majority will grow out of it.

But its the parents that are causing the problem. You think the kids dares to challenge authority when they have no backing?

i recall one such case a few years back, where a kindergarten teacher actually cut off her student's finger for misbehaving during class.

teachers in this sort of situation are emotionally unstable, and they may actually do what they threaten. so best to not treat such incidents as jokes.

Kokykok1988 SG

Yea some really too pamper

lianamaster SG

Kids behave so differently nowadays. They like to climb over the teacher's head, hence it's important that the teacher stay strict yet be able to communicate well with the students.

I was a relief teacher before and boy, it was an experience. U will face all sort of pattern.

You know, I don't know if it's just me but users in this forum seems to find every single chance to bash at the current generation of youths and "preach" about their experience. Anyway back to the topic. It seems that the MOE has lowered its standards of employees to the economic crisis. Holding a sharp weapon and using it as a threat against a mere 7-year old is definitely not something that can be covered up, especially in a world like this. As described by the parent, the entire class was watching and could be influenced easily. Imagine if they used that form of violence to settle problems in the future...it would be disastrous.

I can't believe some of the comments here as well. We aren't living in a medieval era sirs/ma'ams where people become pages at 5 years old, trying to cover up for such an action with I must say...random reasons is just flawed. Teachers undergo alot of training and receive a job that could last for a decade. I'm not saying that all teachers should be the perfect goody-two-shoes white ladies on those American movies, but at least have the basic patience not to vent your troubles on a kid. When they decided to become a teacher they should expect some kids to be like that.

Many replies here state that teachers are being bullied...and the kids are being too pampered yada yada and alot of other stuff. But haven't anyone realised that you too were pampered as compared to your forefathers etc etc. I highly doubt so, most likely comments made from the mouth. The excuse that "good" teachers are bailing out on teaching because they can't take it or whatever is pretty pathetic if you ask me. Teachers during the war era had to handle a far worse predicament than the teachers nowdadays have to. I don't know if it's a trend here but many people here say that kids are too pampered and they were alot more mature but don't do any form of research or actually look at the change. I'm sorry for being direct but that's what I feel.
