The parents of a 12 year old child have gone to the Sri Racha police over an incident at a Surasak sub-district school that left their daughter in hospital for six days.

 

Surat Pree-udom, 36, and his wife Pojaman, 40, took their child along with a medical certificate from Somdej hospital.

 

They asked for action to be taken against a homeroom teacher called Panida (surname withheld). 

 

They told the police that their daughter had said that there had been an incident in class where ink from a pen ended up dirtying a table.

 

As punishment the teacher had allegedly demanded that the whole class perform 60 squat thrusts, reported Siam Rath.

 

That evening, May 31st, the child had leg swelling and fever and was admitted to the hospital where she spent six days. 

 

The mother said that parents trust teachers with their children. She accepted they could be naughty but kids are kids and shouldn't be subjected to a teacher's anger. 

 

She didn't want this to happen to another child.

 

Police Major Natcha Klancheua took the case as police prepared to gather further evidence and interview the teacher involved.

Don't quite agree with this.  Teachers shouldn't lose their temper, and they shouldn't allow anger to cloud their judgement, but some kids only behave once a teacher gets angry with them.  There's of lot of pushing to test boundaries with kids.

Or the hospital. 

 

Was public or private. 

 

Public: Useless and clueless.

Private: Do anything for money.

Used to get that at PE back in the day, don't recall anyone geting hospitalized.

Perhaps she was weak, or ill or frail or suffering from a fever.  But I suspect  you and the  teacher have a lot in common.

That was what I was thinking.  We had to do star jumps, push-ups, squat jumps, etc etc...and (the horror) run about for one hour in the snow and wind in just a pair of nylon shorts and a thin T shirt while kicking a ball about. 

 

Perhaps this girl was sick or has medical issues.  In which case they should have been made aware to the school by the girls parents.

I completely agree. It is easy to throw teachers and people of authority under the bus. Sometimes they do deserve it, but today I doubt that the populace actually cares for the truth.

 

Despite popular opinion on this forum, on this one I would side with the teacher.
