Spare the rod spoilt the child??

I guess this saying is really true in S'pore school context... Rarely have we heard about schools doing their corporal punishment anymore..
Nowadays is more like counselling session, peer mediator talk, etc... Meaning talk and talk but nothing goes right into the brain of the child...

Gone are the days where the one whack on the pupils' hand will wake that fellow up.. No more..
Nowadays must give our best customer service.. Parents have become our customer instead.. Must please them... Ai yoh... A little bit complain to the MP lah... Papers lah... The whole world...
How can teachers do their work you tell me?


PS: Just some personal tots while doing my lessons... Hehehe... Nothing happen to me in skl.. I am still well-liked by my pupils don't worry... :p
