Complaint against school that chained up children

Buri Ram _ A complaint has been filed against the deputy director of a school in Muang district who chained two 12-year-old students to a tree as punishment for truancy. The draconian punishment was meted out after the boys skipped a maths class late last month at a mathayom school in the district. The victimisation enraged their parents who yesterday lodged a complaint against the school's deputy director who ordered them to be chained up.

''He (the deputy director) placed two bowls of water in front of them and, in a bid to humiliate them, called other students to see what he termed the 'monsters','' said one of the boy's mothers.

The boys were chained up for about three hours before being released.

The woman asked education officials to take legal action against the deputy director for the act, which she said went against teacher ethics.

She said her son has become extremely stressed since the punishment and requires continual comforting and reassurance.

''I felt very bad,'' said the boy, whose name was withheld. ''My classmates still call me a monster.''

The deputy director, whose name was not given, admitted he chained up the two students, but argued he did not mean to physically harm or torture them.

''This was to create a psychological impact to keep the boys from skipping class again,'' he said, reasoning the boys were too wild to be dealt with using more conventional methods.

He also claimed their parents had signed an agreement with him, allowing the school to punish their sons if they broke school rules again.

However, chief of the 1st education zone for Buri Ram Surasak Srisawangrat said he had ordered the school director to investigate the case.

The school director was not present when the punishment was carried out, he said.

However, the director telephoned his deputy, instructing him to free the boys when he found out what had happened, Mr Surasak said.

bring back the cane - nothing like a bit of fear to instill self control

If they did this to all truant students in Thailand, they'd need to plant a few more trees. Could solve two problems; truancy & deforestation.

The students were quite pleased to be chained up outside while class was ongoing inside.

Should do that to more of the little monsters,,
Pobly wouldn't have to if the Thai parents would instill some sort of sense in their kids that certain forms of behavior are not suited for civilized people instead of just letting them grow up with no discipline what so ever.

Great..finaly some balls shown...More of that please....:)...

The discipline mane at my old school used to make the boys and girls sit outside in the sun in to get black.

He went as far as making six boys sit in their underwear in the baking midday sun for two hours with their shoe in their mouth bowing to the school buddha out the front - not shit.

Fucking loon he was.

Got his own school now:rolleyes:

I recall getting smacked accross the hands and knuckles with a metel ruller used by the catholic nuns in the 5th grade. That was 50 years ago though... wonder if the statute of limitations has expired...

Mr Stillwell used to draw a chalk cross on each buttock, then whack away with a plimsoll till they were both gone. Miss Kelk preferred to stand disruptive elements in a corner standing on one foot, and you really didn't want to be sent to Mr Cowan and his arsenal of canes without being well padded...otherwise, rapped knuckles or a textbook across the back of the head were pretty common.

Them were the good old days.;)

Kick the crap outta them that will teach them to misbehave and cause havoc the little cretins..
