Vicious teacher who beat student black and blue - "let off because he's close to retirement"

77kaoded Thai Caption: A "cruel" model for society

 

A father who went online to show the horrendous injuries his son suffered at school at the hands of a teacher decided to stop short of reporting the incident to police.

 

His own P5 son told him that the teacher was close to retirement and he admitted that he had submitted three sets of homework late.

 

Reporters at the school in Nakhon Nayok found a deputy director and a head of P5 - but no teacher or director.

 

The class teacher has reportedly admitted what he has done.

 

He allegedly said to the 10 year old pupil that if he told his parents to tell them the full story about not submitting his homework, reported 77kaoded.

 

The parent went with a measured approach to the issue on Facebook saying he believed in his son facing punishment.

 

But many netizens agreed that even in post corporal punishment Thailand this was well over the top.

 

Others said they had been hit by the teacher concerned at the well known Muang district school. 

 

Now that a police report is off the cards the father wants the school to discipline the errant teacher.

Put him out to pasture now and not wait for him to retire , there is no reason why he shouldn't be charged as well .

How close to retirement and why does that matter, he's a criminal

The father has either taken compensation not to report the teacher to the

police , or he does not care as he should about his son.

 

When I was a youngster at school ,had many beatings from both male

and female teachers , none turned out like that ,sore @rse for a while

but not black and blue , the teacher got carried away , no doubt.

Amazing Thailand I would think most other countries the teacher be fired on the spot then again this is amazing Thailand TIT

[Sydebolle]

a) an appropriate whack without leaving any traces is sometimes quite educational - at least when I was a kid some 60 years ago
b) a teacher has no right to reprimand a child by hitting. If there is a problem, order the parents into school for a meeting to address the issue and inform them, that the student in question might be reported higher up for non-compliance and hence repeats the class
c) the teacher in question is going to retire in which jail? I just ask as I'd like to visit the teacher to share my view on the story - verbally only without any physical contact though ???? 

[Bangkok Barry]

So, by refusing to take any action and from what he is claimed to have said, the father condones the beating. If I was his son I'd be very afraid.

Get 1 or 2 years jail

[Iamfalang]

This is Thailand.  This is a school in Thailand.   This is how it's done, and we all know it.

 

NOW, if you have a kid at a Thai school and you do NOTHING about it.......you, as a parent with a brain, are responsible.  As a parent, you know this can happen every day and you should pull your kid(s) out of school.  If not, you need to take some blame.   

 

You will read the article, say "OK" and off your kid goes to school.    Which is exactly why this stuff keeps happening....the parents really don't do enough to protect their kids.

If he held that back, they might think it an overreaction! ????‍♂️

What does this even mean?  "Even in a country where they no longer practice corporal punishment this is over the top"?  That makes no sense.  In a country that no longer practices corporal punishment, then any corporal punishment is over the top.  This sentence would only work if it was "Even in a country that allows some corporal punishment, this is over the top".

No if the child was made aware of the punishmey before he committed the crime

[Aussieroaming]

That teacher needs a good flogging himself, hopefully the father catches up with him in a dark soi.

ok let me see if i am reading into your comment correctly. 

 

you feel there may be a need to enforce *punishment* on these children ? 

 

punishment being a beating in this case.

 

and further. the child is committing a crime ? ahhhh what crime exactly is that ? talking in class ? being rude perhaps ? 

 

you are one messed up dude my man. beating a child in any situation is abhorrent and your thoughts on this is equally disturbing. 

 

wow.

Crime, what crime? What law did this kid break? Who is judge, jury and executioner? The kid failed to submit homework on 3 occaisions. That's not a crime in any statute book.

I didn't say beating a child is a good thing.  However how many of us on here grew up in an era that included reasonable corporal punishment.

Failure to follow the rules doing homework is a crime in school.  Minor yes but it is still a crime.  The problem is that these days there is no responsibility taught for kids.  They then take this lesson on in their lives

there is never any reasonable level of violence. you are lost my friend. 

 

assault is assault no matter the reasonable term you apply to it.

i hate to think what you see real bad behavior being classed as. 

 

like is not doing homework a misdemeanor or a felony ? 

 

do the beatings then become public for all to see ? this is your punishment for your crime.......to a child. 

[Andycoops]

If I was that boys father I would be whipping the s h I t e all the way to nakon nowhere and back, if the police refused to charge him in accordance with the law.
