Recently, a shocking tragedy occurred in Hunan, a 9-year-old boy could not bear the long-term corporal punishment and psychological pressure of the teacher, and chose to end his young life by jumping off a building. Parents couldn't believe that their children, who had always been lively and obedient, would suddenly commit suicide, so they called the police to seek the truth. This incident quickly aroused widespread attention from all walks of life and once appeared on the hot search list.
According to the parents, the boy had shown obvious resistance before the incident and was reluctant to go to school. On the day of the incident, the surveillance recorded a scene before the child's suicide, he hesitated and wandered on the roof for a long time before jumping off the building, revealing the fierce struggle and contradiction in his heart, and he would rather choose to die than the fear of learning. In addition, from the boy's homework book, it was found that the word "grading" was densely written, and the boy was once punished for writing "grading" 10,000 times, so you can imagine how devastated the boy was at that time.
Seeing the boy lying in a pool of blood, the parents were heartbroken and emotionally broken, and they couldn't believe that the scene in front of them was real. The child's parents pointed the fuse of the tragedy to the corporal punishment on campus, firmly believing that the child chose himself in a desperate fit under endless punishment and pressure, so they called the police to seek the truth.
In response to the parents' allegations, the school claimed that the parents' claim that the child had been subjected to corporal punishment for a long time had no factual basis, and expressed their willingness to provide relevant evidence and cooperate with the police investigation. In the relevant monitoring of the police investigation, it can be found that the boy has been punished by the teacher at school with a ruler and has written a lot of content, all kinds of indications indicate that the boy is suspected of being subjected to disguised corporal punishment by the teacher at school, which the school believes does not constitute corporal punishment.
The incident sparked widespread heated discussions on the Internet, with netizens holding different opinions on the teacher's disciplinary behavior. Some people believe that a teacher's reasonable and limited punishment of students is an effective way to establish authority and rectify teaching discipline, while others believe that such a form of discipline is too harsh and may have a negative impact on students' physical and mental health.
There is indeed some justification for the idea that a reasonably limited punishment is an effective means of education. In some cases, a modest punishment can help students recognize their mistakes and prompt them to correct their behavior. The key, however, is how to define "reasonable limits". The severity and manner of punishment should match the student's age, character, nature of the mistake, and other factors, and should not be too harsh or too lenient. At the same time, teachers should also fully consider students' feelings and psychological tolerance when using punishment methods, so as to avoid causing unnecessary harm to them.
In addition, we need to recognize that education is not only about discipline and prestige, but more importantly, about cultivating students' character and ability. Therefore, in the process of education, teachers should pay attention to communication and guidance with students, and use a variety of educational methods to help students grow. Over-reliance on punishment may lead to fear and rebellion, which is detrimental to their long-term development.
We should have a rational attitude towards the teacher's disciplinary behavior. It is necessary to recognize the reasonableness of appropriate punishment and pay attention to its possible negative impact. In the process of education, we should respect the individuality and needs of each student, and adopt a scientific, reasonable and humanized education method to provide a strong guarantee for the healthy growth of students. At the same time, society should also pay more attention to and discuss the issue of education, and jointly promote the progress and development of education.
