This would serve as a deterrent to others. Where there’s no law, there’s no sin.

I know some people here would not like this because they have high tolerance for indiscipline and general bad behaviour which I suspect it’s as a result of their terrible upbringing.

When we cultivate the habit of taking responsibility for our action and possible consequences (which should also be enforced), we will have a better society.

You seem to be a strict disciplinarian. Not bad tho'. Even though I don't know you before, I'd assume you're a teacher-that kinda teacher

The teacher, yourself and every other folk like you are responsible for the decadence around... Let's consider it, a student breaks the rule, then you serve a punishment so cruel that a new rule would be created to mitigate against your action in the future... Not cool... And not far fetched... You've just shown the students the way to go - "never be nice"

You do that to children and they grow with that mentality; to administer the worst possible punishment no matter how trivial the offence, not long afterwards you see jungle justice on the increase,... Our typical Nigerian society...

The purpose of punishment is to teach, correct and help an offender realise the wrong he's/she's done and make changes, not to show you have the ultimate power; man even God shows kindness when he punishes people

Be nice

Rubbish

I am not in support of what the teacher did but I have few things to add
Firstly,i observed that we parent of this era don't care what the child does we tend to blame teachers at every punishment made to our kids. I could remember in the early 80s our parents give our teachers go ahead to scold/punish us anytime we offend or fail to keep the school rules and regulations and thank God we achieved our purpose in life.
Secondly, no matter how the school spell it out for the student not to bring phones to school you'll see them smuggling it out from their respective homes on the other hand some parents might even mandate their kids to take it with them, once the teacher seized it some parent might say it's because the teacher cannot afford that type of phone, or the student will say I'll get my phone back in a week time,we know student now
Finally, I pray God should help us all to be a good role model to our children.
If the teacher had beaten the student we all know the comment we'll pass.
Not here to judge anyone. God bless us all
