dear han ,,, Actually i am not so familiar with the local schools,,, may b u r right in your ways,,,
actually I am from Nepal and I see too many problems in school there ,, a lot of complains of parents punishing the students in very bad manner,,
Its really very bad to give physical or mental torture to the kids who even dont know what is wright and wrong,, I have seen kids of 7 and 8 years been beaten by sticks and blood came out of their hands,, can you imagine if it happens to your kid , i will be mad on this,,,,
