STORY 2- OF STUDENTS AND TEACHERS

STORY 2- Of students and teachers

No teachers punish students without a reason. Students who talk while their teacher is talking, students who refuse to complete their work and students who misbehave are usually punished. They are disciplined so that hopefully they turn over a new leaf. A teacher who fails to discipline, fails to educate the school children. Very often a teacher, who disciplines, does it out of a sincere heart and always wants the students to obey his instructions.
However, teachers do make mistakes. We may make a wrong judgment and students may be punished wrongly. If you as a student is wrongly punished, then I advise you to forgive your teacher. You have every right to be angry at your teacher. Be angry but not for too long. Express it verbally and let it go. Otherwise, you will feel bitter towards your teacher for a very long time. That’s not good for you. Be free of bitterness and move on.
Now let me finish my story.
A student refused to do his work in class. The teacher went near him. He told him to start doing the exercise. Still he refused. Then, the teacher pinched him. He turned, faced towards the teacher and punched him at his face. It happened very fast. The teacher was not prepared for such a punch. He was taken by sheer surprise. Before he could respond, the student ran out of the classroom.
How could students do such a thing? What should teachers / educators do?
