Thai students rally to care for teacher’s child in heartwarming TikTok video

[snoop1130]

 

A heartwarming scene unfolded in a Thai school when a teacher’s young child was cared for by third-year students. The teacher, who had to bring her child to school due to her mother’s illness, was touched by the students’ collective effort.

 

The event was captured on video by the teacher, known as @aungzalalala on TikTok, and quickly gained over a million views. The video showed the students of Kantawich School in Sam Phran district, Nakhon Pathom province, taking turns to care for the teacher’s child, who was seen sleeping in a cot at the back of the classroom.

 

One student was seen rocking the cot, while another rushed to prepare milk for the toddler. The entire classroom was silent, not wanting to wake up the sleeping child. When the child woke up, the students took turns playing with him.

 

The video quickly went viral, drawing a multitude of comments praising the Year 9 students for their collective effort in caring for their teacher’s child.

An aspect of social respect not yet  destroyed in that part of Thailand. A tribute to the Teacher  at least .

Who here in this toxic platform will choose to defile  it ?

Here’s some. If something happened to the baby while being cared for by students eg, they drop him, he sticks a pen in his eye etc who’d be responsible? Not to mention students look for any excuse to distract themselves from doing class work. Did she have permission from school to bring the baby into classroom?

These kids are just doing what most have to do at home, it's normal here.

Oh no ! I did not think of that !

Perhaps those students  actually had  nefarious thoughts and were only  waiting for an opportunity to drop kick the infant shortly after sticking a pen in one eye ? The same sort of activity  many /most/ perhaps all perform on their younger siblings at home?

Possibly encouraged to do so by a sick minded foreign step parent ? Or not ?

A bit exaggerated. Not that common. We’re also talking about children caring /handling babies which does not apply in Big C etc situations.

We’re talking about inexperienced children not sick people with nefarious intentions. Accidents at home are not the same as accidents at work which is more complicated and with wider implications.
