CURRENT MOOD: frustrated
NOW BLASTING: Nirvana - In Bloom

Okay apprently what happened was... Bingjian let Chuanyao queue behind him, which was in front of Winston. Winston wasn't happy so he took Chuanyao's cap n hid it. Thats why he said Winston was stealing, before Winston gave it back. That was when Jaga came in n told them to be quiet n face the front. When she walked away, Winston muttered stupid and Jon told Jaga wat he said. That was when she scolded him and he started crying n stamping his feet. and THAT was when Jaga told him to stop acting so silly! And the rest is history...

Anyways, Belinda, Jaga and I talked to his dad. He seemed more concerned about what triggered Winston's behaviour rather than how he handled the situation so rudely. He said the other boy shouldnt have accused him of stealing. I told him that Winston did take Chuanyao's cap. His dad was like ah but thats just kid's squabble. The 3 of us were like WTF?! Oooookayyyyy? Then he proceeded to ask what happened BEFORE that and I told hi mthat Chuanyao cut queue and that made Winston unhappy. And he said Chuanyao shouldnt have done that. I was tempted to cut him off and say "ah thats only kids squabble" but he went on and on about how that probably triggered the unexpected behaviour in Winston. OMG it was all CRAP! His son can do NOTHING wrong!

The teachers and I were more concerned about how he handles himself when he;s in trouble and instead his dad focused on what had triggered the reaction. DUDE! I mean COME ON! He's got YEARS of school life ahead of him and if he doesnt know how to handle a situation now, he;s never gonna learn. SOMEONE's got to teach him! His dad said someone should tell that boy not to use the word "STEAL" coz its very serious. We were like, to the boy it probably WAS serious. Theyre just kids and their vocab is obviously limited so what else can he say? In his eyes, Winston did steal his cap. Then he said teachers should have done something about that cutting queue thing. I was like we didnt even KNOW! Winston didnt even explain to the teachers what had happened. How can his dad expect us to do anything about something we're not told about? Instead of calmly tellign a teacher, he chose to throw a fucking tantrum! THAT needs some looking into. Not how the teachers handle the situation.

Man it is SAD. I dont like parents beating their kids up but in this case, I do think some kind of spanking or caning is in order. And by caning i do not mean some heavy duty shit. Just a light caning would do. This may be a scare tactic but it WORKS. Kids that age do not always listen to reason so how else do we get them to listen? By scaring them. By the time they go to highschool, caning is obviously out of the question. At that age, kids are able to think and reason, therefore there is no need for caning.

And then there's Jolin. She was caught shoplifting at the bookshop. Man I feel sorry for this kid. Her mom gives her 30cents everyday and packs her lunch. She isnt allowed to use the 30 cents coz its only for emergency. At the end of the day she is to return the money. Not too bad right? Okay, hear this. Everytime during exam period, if she scores less than full marks, she gets one stroke of the cane for every one mark she loses. So if she gets 80/100, she gets 20 strokes. JEEZ! Okay, the kid may be exaggerating but still? I wouldnt cane them to make them study. I would cane to correct terrible behaviour. To make them study, I would take away privileges. She said that she shoplifted coz she is jealous all her friends buys nice things from the bookshop and she cant coz her mom doesnt give her pocket money. I wish Winston's folks are this strict with him LOL!

One too lenient and the other too strict. To each his own I guess. Their kids, their rules.

PS. I still think that getting jailed for spanking ur own kid for the purpose of disciplining is TOTAL and ABSOLUTE CRAP!
