boomerangutang Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 What and who is that photo? Is this some kind of sick joke story? I tried the link, and it only has a couple added sentences, but doesn't shed much light on the story. Is the farang in the photo the alleged attacker?

Suradit69 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) Well spotted cracking film! But Jeffrey Jones, the guy in the photo who played the principal, was also charged with sexual offences involving an underage boy and is now a registered sex offender, which makes the use of that photo even stranger if it's supposed to represent a real school official in Thailand. Jones Can't Escape Child Sex Charges by WENN | 27 October 2004 FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF star JEFFREY JONES is set to return to court to face the boy he was accused of taking sexual advantage of. The actor faced criminal charges last year (03) for taking explicit photos of the boy - a charge to which he pleaded "no contest." Jones' was sentenced to five years of probation and the judge ordered him to register as a sex offender. http://www.contactmusic.com/news-article/jones-can.t-escape-child-sex-charges Edited August 22, 2013 by Suradit69 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post NongKhaiKid Posted August 22, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2013 I am surprised that someone has actually stood up against a school. These things are happening routinely. I know of a schoolgirl whose nail was forcibly cut against her will. You are right this happens more than is ever reported. Some years back I worked at a Technical School in Nth. Isan where the Deputy Director responsible for discipline carried a small whip type instrument, something like a Sth. African shambok, which he routinely used to administer " justice " to latecomers and teenage boys fooling about in the corridors. He and his goons, a couple of young male teachers, also grabbed the boys and dragged them to his room where their hair was forcibly cut with electric clippers. I often wished the school's attitude to discipline had been reflected in their attitude to giving a decent education 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talisman01 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I agree with the above post. At my Isaan school a great deal of time and effort goes into implementing the dress code. At assembly two mornings ago, for example, all students violating the code - mainly students who had lost items of their scout uniform or wear wearing whitened brown plimsolls - were hauled up in front of assembly, given a verbal dressing down and had to run a few times round the school square. A couple of weeks ago there was a blitz on haircuts. About one third of the students were deemed ok, the rest, pooying and poochai, had to line up for a haircut. First, one of the several teachers having a go, each student got a rough cut, then one of the students whose father is a barber, gave each student a final more presentable cut. These are but two examples, but it happens in various forms almost every assembly and beatings happen often. I just wish as much effort was put into ensuring students attended class, that teachers taught the classes they are supposed to teach and that those teachers too lazy to even go to their classrooms were sacked forthwith. In passing, I have come to realise how very hard it is to sack a Thai teacher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noistar Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Maybe the kids should watch the film IF and take appropriate action ! regards Worgeordie Maybe the kids should follow the rules of the institution they are enrolled in. Maybe said institution should spend more time providing the decent education it exists for, rather than concentrating on militaristic uniforms.Why does my step-daughter wear her student number and name on her blouse? Something else for her to disciplined for if she has to wear a different blouse for whatever reason? Mind you, the various badges prepare them for pathetic government jobs and the uniforms/insignia. BTW I don't see any discipline being achieved when I see how students act outside of school. Education first. Sorry, I forgot, doesn't work in Thai schools TIT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomerangutang Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 *Deleted post edited out* We don't know if the teacher was farang or Thai ....or what. The article is too sparse and the photo doesn't fit. Altogether a crappy stab at journalism. If this happened, there should be a police report written up on him, and if there's any truth to a grown man beating a kid, that man should lose his job, at the least. .....and if as serious as the article alludes to, assault charges should be filed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry to say that I believe your trust in the Police is misplaced. IMO the police will be 'educated' by the all edged offender and it will reside in an in-tray, probably under-going intense investigation to ensure no hasty decisions are made. If more serious crimes appear to be ignored, what chance a 'normal' disciplining of a student? I assume we're talking a government school anyway Edited August 23, 2013 by Scott Deleted post edited out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DocN Posted August 23, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2013 This again shows, that Thailands education system is not at all about "learning" or "education". It is about discipline! Don't stand out, don't be original, don't have a free will. Perfect "education" to fit into the hierarchy of an overhauled "tradition", where the only thing you really have to learn, is where your place is! My kid wouldn't go to that school for one second longer, if any of this would ever happen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The photo is of a Farang, why use this guys photo if he wasn't the offender can he use the Thai defamation laws and sue the life out them for publically portraying him as a guy who beats up children? They wouldn't be that stupid to use an innocent mans photo to publically portray him as a guy who abuses and beats children. Stupid to say the least, better no photo than this as there is no point. An artist impression -example, would be acceptable. Either this principle has home/money problems, or just copying his fathers anger, but it sounds like he actually enjoyed this event to prove his masculinity. Unless the boy has been giving him problems over a period of time and he just snapped --but I doubt that. This teacher HAS to have history of abuse to my thinking, never change their spots.

hanno Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Years back I had an interview for high school; mom, principal, and me. Eventually, talk came to corporal punishment (this is Kenya in the early 80's). My mom made it very clear were that cane would end up if it ever touched me. Still got accepted as they were short of Rugger players (Indian school). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
