Teacher beat 1st grader with bruises: Violence education does not make children better!

Recently, teachers have been forced to resign or terminate their employment contracts because of school violence, but the use of violence against students continues.

Many experts believe that students can make mistakes, may often not do their homework… but that does not mean that teachers are allowed to use violence against students.

Regarding the case where the teacher beat the 1st grader with bruises for not completing the test, psychologist Nguyen Hanh Phuc – Hanh Phuc Psychotherapy Consulting Center (Hanoi) said that the cases of teachers using violence The effort to educate students also gives teachers a lesson in the patience of the teaching profession.

“The pedagogical training process must help teachers keep the word “forbearance” and calmness in front of students, even if the students are not good or have not done their homework. The problem is that teachers must use their pedagogical skills to guide students to develop in a positive direction.

There have been people who have asked me if violence education can make a child better?

Of course not because violence only creates violence. The defense of a child experiencing violence is anger venting that pain on another child, being stubborn and anti-adult.

The most dangerous thing is that the child who is abused will hate himself, become weak. I once met a child who talked about his suffering because of not being able to study well and being scolded by his teacher. This makes me withdraw, hate myself and really panic every time I have to face learning.

I believe that teachers are empowered in educating children, but that right must be based on understanding, tolerance, tolerance and love, never tolerating violence.“, psychologist Nguyen Hanh Phuc said.

According to this expert, in order to prevent school violence, besides the family, schools must implement education first and orientate first. The school must strictly implement the cultural code of conduct in the school environment so that teachers and students follow the rules, procedures, and practice in this important environment.

For students, each teacher needs to clearly show his role as a guide, instructing them with his own sincere love. Thus, students will feel the love of teachers for them. This is also an important catalyst that facilitates the “chemical equation” named happiness of both teachers and students to take place to the fullest.
