Read about the horrifying corporal punishment awarded to a kid of class 2 by her teacher?
This was just because she could not read the alphabets properly. The teacher bashed the
kid's head on the table and made her stand in the scorching heat for 2 hrs. The kid
fainted and now is in coma in a hospital. I wonder how some people have turned this
noble profession into an ignoble one. Recently there has been a rise in such inhuman
activities in schools. Prior to this I read about electrocution of a child in school as a
punishment. Then there are people who sexually abuse small children in school causing
grievous injuries. Are these people not criminals who cause lifetime impairment to the
innocent children in prime of their lives?
How to provide our children a better future? Whom to trust which is so essential?

Exactly. I was reading an article published as part of Woman's Day drive in TOI. One statement caught my eye "A principal of a school told this single mother - Don't feel guity because you are a working mother. Every teacher teaching your kid is one too". While this is very true, when I see the rising inhuman punishments these teachers mete out to tender children, I really wonder "Do they not see our kids as their kids? How can a woman, a mother be so inhuman?"
