It was equally shocking as awful as it was to learn that a IX standard student murdered his teacher. The teacher had made poor remarks in the progress report which apparently irked the student. This gruesome and heinous incident reminds me of the news we often hear about similar incidents in foreign countries.....students carrying pistols/knifes to schools. Few years ago, there was news on the sex experiments conducted in some school in Mumbai by IX standard students...then came the news on mms clips from another school and now the schools have reached a different level with this incident...
It is not easy to decide who is culpable.. Is it unmonitored freedom the irascible adolescents get or the web access or the pressure (torture) the parents put on them for results..or the over enthusiastic attitude of teachers (may not be true in the current case)..
Do these adolescents need psychology sessions on how to treat their parents or teachers...or Should security gadgets be installed at the gates to monitor what they carry..or Is it the time for parents and teachers to invent new methodologies to analyze their behavior...as usual I am confused...
Lets hope this would not trigger such unfortunate murders of teachers elsewhere......
