Be careful with fights/pushing around, in the classroom. They might grt out of hand.
I had two M3 students squaring up to each other. Just as I was moving towards them, one got out a knife and stabbed the other boy twice in the gut.
Kid with the knife ran out. The other boy just stood there shocked. I carried him to the school nurse, then went back to the classroom to calm the other kids down and reassure them about their friend.
No Thai teachers in sight.
Shock, and the seriousness of the situation was starting to set in as I got back to the teachers room.
The boy spent three days in ICU but thankfully, he recovered.
The one who stabbed him was allowed back in the school after his parents paid the medical bill.
After a couple of weeks, I was told that the director was grateful to me for not talking to the authorities about the incident.
Let's be careful out there.
