YTC .. out in public later and stab up more ppl or beat out somebody girl chile.. cycle

[Chimera]

YTC just makes them worse and trains them for other crimes.

[nareshseep]

time to start blazin dey arse!!!!! tuh hell with fkn rights...

Dais abuse dey bai! Tantie Kams and Diana Mahabir-Wyatt say so!

Our schools today under Tantie Kams and Tim Gopiesingh are a total mess wrt discipline. All the Ministry of Education does is to issue a set of warning letters to teachers that they are NOT to give corporal punishment under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES to children. The letters go on to state that a teacher can be fired or charged in court for so doing.

The thing is there is nothing else in place to discipline children in our schools.

Yuh cyar put dem in de sun - dais abuse.
Yuh cyar put dem in de dustbin - dais abuse
Yuh cyar put dem outside de classroom - dais abuse
Yuh cyar put dem to do laps - dais abuse
Yuh cyar beat dem - dais abuse
Yuh cyar put dem to stannup wid dey hands up in de air - dais abuse
yuh cyar pants dem - dais abuse

If they get suspended - maximum suspension is five days and dey back in de system.

Of course all of this is supported by a whole bunch of jackass parents who doh wah no teacher to 'touch meh chile".

I do agree with the 1st world approach to teaching children, but there is no place for it in a banana republic. Who is responsible for the upbringing of a child ? the teachers or the parents?

[eitech]

Parents supposed to instill values and teachers are supposed to serve as a support system. However, the foundation is from the home. School is a support system. If both systems fail, well that's unfortunate.

Abusing a kid with " licks" does not solve his mental problems. A number of factors is blame here, first to look at his family (if he has one) and the culture to which is from.

Schoolboy stabbed to death

Story Updated: May 28, 2013GRIEF-Stricken: Camille Taitt, left, mother of 14-year-old Renaldo Dixon, expresses her grief yesterday. —Photo: DAVE PERSADA fifth form pupil allegedly abandoned his Caribbean Examination Council (CXC) history exam yesterday and waited in the school’s playing field for the 14-year-old pupil whom he believed had won the heart of his girlfriend. He attacked Renaldo Dixon, a third form pupil, who was stabbed four times with a knife as he sat on a bench with his friends.Another pupil, who tried to push away the killer, was cut on the neck.The incident occurred during the recess break at Waterloo Secondary School, Carapichaima, at around 10.30 a.m.Police said the 16-year-old suspect came to school with a kitchen knife.The Express was told by a schoolmate of the dead boy: “The form five boy was supposed to write CXC history exam this morning. But he didn’t come to the exam room. He stood around waiting for the form three boy. But no one knew what he was doing. Then he saw the boy sitting on a bench and went up to him. They had an argument over a girl. He then take out a knife and start stabbing him. There was blood all over the place. It was traumatising.”Dixon, of Bagna Trace, Chase Village, Chaguanas, was pronounced dead at Freeport Health Centre.His mother, 34-year-old Camille Taitt, said she was at home when a teacher called with the news. “A teacher called to say my son was stabbed at school. She said to meet them at the Couva Hospital, but they didn’t make it there. They reached the Freeport Health Centre. When I got there he was dead.”Taitt said her son was stabbed twice in the back, his wrist and abdomen. “The stab that doctors believed killed him was one in the left side of his back which is four inches deep,” she said.Taitt said she was aware that her son was close to a female pupil, but she did not know there was an ongoing feud.“I know he had a friend. I met her and her mother at a parents’ day recently. And on Wednesday they had no school and the girl’s mother called to ask if my son can come over for two hours and I said yes. They are in the same class. I believe the girl probably chose Renaldo over the boy and that caused the fight,” she said.Taitt, a mother of four, said her son never complained of any problems at school. Taitt pleaded for the return of corporal punishment in schools. And she suggested that pupils be scanned before entering the school compound.“They usually searched children before allowing them to enter the school because of previous incidents, but I don’t know how they missed this one. I believe they should bring back corporal punishment in schools. Look at what is happening,” she cried.Taitt said her son, who wanted to become an architect, would have turned 15 in October. “That means my child didn’t accomplish anything in all his life. He was a loving child who would do anything for anyone,” she said.The grieving mother advised parents to talk to their children.“Find out what is going on in their lives. I talk to my children everyday. This boy went to school with a knife in his bag this morning to kill my child. Why did this happen? I would miss his smile and the way he would just walk in and say ‘mammy’.”The suspect, of Calcutta Road, Freeport, was being questioned by police last evening.Dixon’s body was removed to the San Fernando General Hospital’s mortuary. An autopsy will be performed at the Forensic Science Centre in St James today.

Well, interesting diagnosis there with "mental problems". We are all capable of killing if pushed enough. It just comes down to who has more self-control.

On the other hand, this was a clearly pre-meditated act. He left home with a kitchen knife and did not go to the History exam he was supposed to be sitting at that time. He waited for the other boy, then stabbed him.

Yes, home factors could have played a role but "jealously' is a green eyed s-o-b that we must all be careful of.

[Les Bain]

I go real feel for the killer when he released into society and see how bad this chick aged. Or not. This story read out like a big jackass party. just went too far with the form 3 getting killed.

[RIPEBREDFRUIT]

the youth that Killed that boy deserves to be served the SAME sentence.
DEATH!
whoever vex with my statement- too bad, but you take a life, you have given up YOUR right to life.

[Chimera]

are teachers really not allowed to make you stand up in hot sun/stand up with hands in the air/run laps anymore?

even that is banned?


http://now.msn.com/westwood-high-school ... punishment




Two Arizona high school students who were caught fighting were given a choice: Be suspended or sit in the Westwood High School courtyard holding hands. Their very public humiliation has been criticized by fellow students and the school district, even though the boys chose it over suspension. "It's kind of elementary school," student Samantha Biggs said. Others weren't as kind. Facebook comments (and OF COURSE their picture was posted online) said the punishment encouraged bullying and that it was detrimental to gay students because it considered two men holding hands "embarrassing." "The district does not condone the choice of in-school discipline … regardless of [the students'] acceptance or willingness to participate," a Mesa Public Schools representative said. [Source]

This will not be tolerated, this "beetham" mentality displayed by these likkle injuns must stop.

Always fightin in priceplaza, makin out in the library in chaguanas and runnin away from home and sayin a rastaman kidnap yuh

I say he must be hanged to make an example to others

Either that or 25yrs to life, because all he was studyin was to go to school and waste time.

Wastin my tax money to process him and then get him fat in jail.

I think I even saw a pictyah of him with his pants below the waist.

Is he a parent already? Why does his face look like that? I blame a lack of good Indian role models and poor upbringing mixed with social insecurity as per bbc

Well is another murder lol!
