Suicides now and hardly any then
February 28, 2014
There have been a spate of schoolgirl suicides and fingers of accusation pointed this way and that, even at Facebook. The National Child Protection Authority (NCPA) rushed in where it should have taken time before taking the drastic step of arresting a Principal because he had scolded a girl and she committed suicide. That has caused a rumpus. The principal should not have been arrested so fast since the case should have been delved into and then the drastic action taken, if it was really necessary. A person such as a Principal of a school should be given due respect. We saw on TV protests by teachers and principals and the vowing that they, in future, would not discipline the children in their schools. God forbid! Things are already out of hand in schools; how would it be if all teachers and principals take no notice of students' behaviour.
