and open your mouth and ask for help (like in skool look for your teacher or counsellor) and dun ever take things in your own hands, it can turn ugly

and bear w/ it, once it's over it's over and you it's something good for you to learn for e future

I think the teachers are too protective of their cars.

Mischievious students are known to have scratched the teachers' cars or punctured the tyres.

Cases of suicide by students should be publicised to educate the people so that parents can find ways to prevent it. It's a puzzle why the Singapore media and MOE always hushed up instead of taking action to reduce the risk .

In some countries, there are caregivers to help the emotionally fragile become emotionally stable. If there is no similar program to help such youngsters who are easily victimised, it's time the MOE take the lead and start a program to help them,

becoz wait sure got alot of copycat suicides de.

it's an excuse, lame one

copycat is simply because it seems to be e easy way out for an indv than opening his or her mouth for help

the thing is to get them to speak up somehow.. face it and not run away from it

yes death is sorrow.. condolences to the affected.. but nevertheless, suicide is never ever an option. its a decision made, too late to retract, but a lesson for those remaining.

why must there be finger pointing?

i pity teachers.. how some people easily blame them when something goes wrong.. they are human also and can only do as much.. its not the teachers, its the system.

IM ON FOR CORPORAL PUNISHMENT IN SCHOOL. Fuck those rich ass parents who complain and over protective of their precious spoilt brats..

Quinsy SG

I bet the silly kid jumped to his death to gain more pity and awareness to the public. Pity, it will be swept under the carpet again.

Funny why people always say this - that sucide is an easy way out ... not targeting anybody but in general, many people said that . I think to try to take your own life requires tremendous effort and guts ... . . pity the guy ... and hate those bullies ... I always keep a look up for bullies near any schools and will approach when I see bullying take place.. even when I am driving I would stop and questions what they doing in the hope to help some poor little kid... I wish there are better way to stop this . . . .

sigh,,,.

U simply dun understand that some teenagers are very quiet type, so it is difficult to ask them to open their mouth, sometime they cannot express out their inferior feelings. And at time, even if they speak it out, teachers ignored them and classmates laugh at them, he/she will feel so lonely. The problem with principals and teachers are they dun like to listen to students, their mentality is that you all are young young, what the hell you know and what pressure you have than we? And worst still, some teachers instill fear into the students mentality by using threatening and harsh words.

Pyschologically speaking, a person will speak out his/her trouble if the environment/condition is right, that is, someone willing to listen and advice them sincerely, someone willing to help and care for them, and finally someone who are willing to take the effort to understand them. Therefore as some poster here indicated correctly, MOE must create an environment / placement in all schools/insitutes, a channel for students to express out without fear, without barriers, without a teacher and student relationship condition. All teachers must be trained to identify the weak and help them. But in most cases, teachers alway care for the brighter and good results student, that make the brigher students brighter, and the lower student...lowered. The objective of teachers must be change to help the weak and encourge the brighter one to help the weak at equal footing.

when you find yourself so called out of options, it seems easier...

when one suffers from depression, they can do anything silly or take matters into their own hands

sbst275 SG

tat's why face it and change..

you've to learn how to speak out no matter wat. you never speak out how you know e principal or teacher would laugh at you? I'd rather think they would immediately help you cos it's their responsibility if unhappiness occures in school

"MOE must create an environment / placement in all schools/insitutes, a channel for students to express out without fear, without barriers, without a teacher and student relationship condition". I do not understand tis statement, so you are telling me right now there isn't counsellors in schools or is it telling me tat 'fear' is from oneself's mindset?

like I've said, is to face it and not run away from it

U must always remember that there are always introvert students in all school, and you should know how introvert behave, they simply keep everything to themselves, therefore, as adults and nuturing skilled trained teacher from NIE, they must have the initiative to identify these people, bring them out and give them space and time to express themselves, from there, they can sincerely help and counsel them. Counselling is a 2 way communication, but teachers here are alway the one talking and fail to truly understand the indept of the student concern.

Yes, the student can face it, but faces what??? if the framework is nothing but just a show that the school is doing it jobs as per MOE requirement, meet the students, meet the parents and meet the teachers may become as norm as just a passing a motion. It become a platform for general information exchange rather than in depth concern and study into an individual problem.

Sometime, in school, the student faced it and reported it, and the teacher tell him off by saying how can u get bullied, guess your classmate only play play, you want me to punish them is it?? that ward off the student approach, then if the teacher announce it infront of the whole class, Class, please stop bullying so n so, if he report again, the whole class will hv to stay back. This make the whole class fed up with him, taking him as a sabotagers, and later, if given a chance like sports in PE, they sure to bully him again. So how??
