saxywale: Someone said that she suffered from depression, this is why I was talking about depression. You are right, she could have suffered from other mental illness. A school would like to know and the school knows are two different things. A school has no right to force parents to show them medical records. |

carefreewannabe: What they need to do to avoid all possible hindsight that our "progressives" might come up with is: - Tie her up or put her in a strait jacket - Sit with her in the room - Call her parents That way, she would not even have a chance to smash a glass and harm herself or anyone else. Then when we hear that happened in the press, the same "progressives" would come out with their moral superiority of how her rights were violated because of her mental health problems. That they should have only blown her kisses, so the school should be sued for detaining her unlawfully. Funky-wannabees! 1 Like |

Sagamite: This is EXACTLY the problem I have with this story. Her parents made mistakes but blame the school. I am not saying that the teacher handled the situation properly. Maybe he did, maybe he didn't. I can't say because I wasn't there and I don't trust this mother. |
Re: Nigerian Girl Commits Suicide In New York by Nobody: 9:24pm On Nov 15, 2014 |
Sagamite: EXACTLY! Now people say that the school should have made the girl stay in a room by force but if they had done it, they would have been sued for imprisoning a child and at worst by using violence to do so. |

Sagamite:Common. I believe you are more educated than this. Do you honestly think that is the only way to enforce someone from leaving a school premises That is why law is not your calling. Leave that for the professionals. Maybe Nairaland MOD is your calling. 1 Like |

Sagamite: If I had been the teacher, I would not have yelled at a mentally sick child. And I would have talked to the girl after the exam. However, I don't know what the teacher REALLY did. |

carefreewannabe: That is why the case is now in court...so many unanswered questions. ''Now Adeoye’s court-filed papers reportedly state that even though the teacher had immediate possession of the suicide note, the school’s staff “…failed to prevent (the teenager) from leaving the school.” The heartbroken Mom also claims that the school waited too long before police were summoned''. Adeoye is also contesting that the fact that her daughter even cheated at all stating that the accusation was never verified. Even if the case is thrown out. I am sure the school would learn a thing or two from this episode. |

Re: Nigerian Girl Commits Suicide In New York by Nobody: 9:35pm On Nov 15, 2014 |
saxywale: 1. If the teacher yelled, must be proven. There were plenty of witnesses in the room so it should not be a problem. 2. When you collect tests after an exam, you do not check them immediately. It can take a week or two till you correct them so he might not have seen the suicide note immediately. 3. Did they know the girl wanted to leave the school's premises? 4. If they did, how could they have prevented her from leaving the school's premises? They are not allowed to do so by force. 5. When did they notice that the girl left the school's premises? |

UjSizzle:Yeah, the issue of too many regulations has even been raised by some legal practitioners here. There are truly ridiculous laws ie a New York City ordinance limiting the size of soda (soft drink) people can drink in a restaurant At the Federal level, if a politician uses part of his campaign funds to buy a personal car, he/she could face prosecution, and possibly jail time |

Sagamite:It's neither my profession. We have peace officers (atleast in Canada, I am sure they do in the US too..) in high schools or patient watch in mental health Units or Psychiatry wards in Hospitals. They are not there to arrest just for theft. The Peace officers(Similar to NSCDC in Nigeria) are sometimes required to keep an eye on special students at the request of the school authority. Part of their job duties requires that they stop students (with mental health issues) from harming themselves or others. Or to stop act of violence from occurring in the school premises. You read the part the girls mum said the school had safety cameras yet the girl still managed to leave the school premises and jump into a river. Maybe high schools in the UK don't have stuffs like that.. Left England not long after I completed my degree. |
