I was horribly wowed by the number of support some people were giving to the teachers that perpetrated this dastardly act...Is it because people's human right has been thrown to the dogs in Nigeria that they do not know the difference between good and bad?...where people will deliberately inflict pain on others and goes scotch free... where uniformed person will slap someone and there will not be law suit awaiting for him @ home...

Anyways, I guess that's how they were being wired....They have never known or seen better....

DropShot:

And why has this bullying we see here which is also prevalent in many other schools, not stopped teenage pregnancy and other social vices?

cummando:

*ghen ghen cummando wan scatter*..... it's how we are being wired....mention one person in ur generation that u want ur kid to be like?

I heard u right..

unless your fuse box don blow. sheeorrr

Juzzybabe:


Dear, punishment of such leaves most kids feeling very less of themselves among peers. it leaves a psychological effect that grows in them. Do you know that just words can make your kids abide by all regulations? most parents are not just patient enough to have a chat with their kids. either pick pin, pin pick,crawl in bud, carry bag on head and whatever punishment una call it, I will never condone such for my precious child. Train your child from small with good morals accompanied with the word of God and you won't believe who your child will grow to be.

DropShot:

21st century is not only about technological development. It's also about behaving in more civilized manner than in the past. It's also about embracing gentle ways to resolving issues than the aggressive and archaic methods of the past.

This method here qualifies for bullying.

Better method to deal with this is making them do some school chores such as clearing weeds, cleaning toilets, arranging books on bookshelves, etc.

MrSly:

Tell a child to clean the toilet and his parent would list all the possible germ that has infected them. Tel them to work in school farm ad they will tell you that they paid school fees not to make their children farmers but to learn. Place them under any other corrective measure and they will recount how you marginalised their wards by punishing them when others are learning. As long as this 21st century civilization saga is concerned people don't want their children to be touched again. But we are Africans and shouldn't be deceived by the illusions of american movies.

ruudcruise:
This is just wrong, we Africans believe in strict home training values but go at it in a wrong way.

Imagine people supporting bullying and proud of it!
Same people will hypocritically condemn a man beating his wife for not doing house chores.

If this is right what makes the husband beating his wife for something else wrong?

DropShot:

Your argument holds no water. If the school can get away with this corporal punishment, it will surely be able to get away with making this do chores.
This is the worst of all the options available to the school. Why settle for it?

Do you condemn a man who beats his wife for any failure? If you do, what is different in this case?

Richy4:


Just look at that pic again...especially the first one....you will find a tiny kid by the left wearing something that looks like yellow struggling......I just want to believe people were typing and supporting this just for the fun of annoying other...But if this is really how they are, I don't just know what to say...

MrSly:

Regardless of your sentiments, any corrective measure that is not detrimental to the health a child is welcomed.

DropShot:

I'm ashamed of this your post. This is 21st century and there are better ways of instilling discipline than this demeaning and reprehensible method.

I won't accept this punishment or anything close to it for my children from any school.

Modified*
No need to quote me to spew nonsense such as "how old are you?". Or "I'm sure you have no children" and "this is how our children get spoiled without disciplining them".

Just use pestle and planks on yours or throw them in oven all in the name of instilling discipline in them.

End of story.

omofela85:

If you all see nothing wrong in making children of ten years and below kneel in mud and crawl with their knees, I therefore advise you to do same with your kids when you eventually have them.

If you guys like, use big pestle to hit your children or throw them in oven just to make them disciplined. Na una sabi.

DropShot:

You didn't answer my question.

DropShot:

And rubbing them in mud is not detrimental to their health?. Guy, abeg free me.

SalomonKane:
This time I have to agree with you.

Peeps like dropshot, cos they weren't showed the importance of punctuality when they were in pry/sec schools, popularised the concept of African Time.

TonyeBarcanista:
What is barbaric here? It is discipline my Dear OP. Some of us experienced it while in primary school. For some of us it was kneel down + flogging.


Yes, it made lots of kids understand the importance of punctuality.
