Where there's smoke there's fire.
A complete breakdown of all respect and morality has unfolded is this ****hole of a pigsty, which was a country.

I am not sure how old you are - but I maticulated in 1990.
We had bully's back then - hell, one kid even pulled a knife on another one.
Of course, he was sent off to a reformatory. These days he is put on a fast track to ANC-ville.

The point I am trying to make is that while we will always have thugs, savages and idiots - it is how we deal with them that makes or breaks a society.

yes but then it was typically a punch-up, NOT sexual assault, guns, etc

Alanf85, I suppose you're right, But better late than never. Bringing back the cane wont help. Thats trying to treat a symptom but ignoring the cause.

 

[Robin Hood]

This is disturbing.

Any parents out there?

Do you guys know about this?

Truly disturbing.

Are these people overreacting or is there truth to this?

Mix with a Bozo and you'll become like a Bozo...

The cause is ill discipline. It's treated the same way be it a teacher or a parent

The cause is bad parenting.

The cause of bad parenting is the breakdown of the family unit - whether that be because of migration, death of family members, financial insecurity etc.

Many countries around the world are experiencing the loss of family figureheads - the wise leaders - there's nobody to teach parents how to bring up thier children properly.

These parents themselves were victims of poor upbringing, so the moral decay becomes a vicious cycle.

The only way to break this cycle is direct intervention - to take children at risk out of the "diseased" family unit.

Easier said than done...

 

[PeterCH]

Kids these days are different then kids 10 years ago.

Every generation says this same thing.

 

[Cadavre777]

I think you're on the right track there bb_matt. It has alot more to do with "ill discipline". Children dont become monsters without influence, be it from their family, peers or media. All corporal punishment will do, is reinforce the idea that it's OK to use violence.

Male model beaten up at school
http://www.24.com/news/?p=tsa&i=862756

"The school cannot accept responsibility for what pupils are taught at home ...

"Sometimes, there are pupils that do not behave in a proper manner," said Schutte.

He said discipline was under pressure in all schools and that it was becoming increasingly difficult to maintain order.

"The school simply reflects the behaviour of society, which is becoming increasingly worse."

So with lack of discipline and one bully/bastard misbehaves the rest is also guilty?

The government took away school discipline as well as Father/Mother discipline, Now that the society is failing, its the parents fault again. The current situation only reflects what society breeds.

Bollocks. Parents need to discipline and teach their children civil behavior. That is not the school's job.

The job of the school is to give my child an education and if that means beating seven shades out of your child for disrupting my child's education, well so be it.

Easy stance to take when you assume its your child that is being disrupted rather than doing the disrupting.

i must be different.

if my child was doing the disrupting then i would heartily encourage the school to beat seven sh1ts out of him.

and then send him home to me to administer the remaining 20.

Oh true - but I'd also think that my child should receive the same treatment if he is the problem. I like to think I do my bit at home but maybe I am not.

This was happening at my school way back in 1997..
