And what if, the next case (and there will be a next, and a next, and a, next one to come too!), this sort of a murder happened in a PRIVATE school, huh? Then, do the parents, pull their children OUT of school, altogether, and MAKE them stay at home, because that, is what's, safe for them??? Off of the Newspapers, translated…
The School Awarded the Diploma to the Victim, Which Was Picked Up by the Families of the Victim
The stabbing death by a spring knife of a last year middle school student in Hsinbei, caused nation wide attention, because the deceased only had seven more months of school left before graduation, the school stated, that they had the intentions of awarding the degree to the family, and if the family agreed, then, the school will go through with the procedurals of filing the papers in, but the families hadn't called the school.
And, the student who'd murdered the classmate, was placed in juvenile detention hall as the trial is proceeding in investigations. If the perp is convicted of a sentence of five years or more, then, he will be transferred to the Kaohsiung's Correctional Ming-Yang Middle School. Ming-Yang is a technical middle and high school institution, but because it's where the serious felons are placed, the disciplinary measures are way tougher than the other correctional school facilities around the country.
The other three correctional middle school are more oriented toward reforming the convicted teens, of those who carried the illegal weapons, used illegal substances, the criminals to be, but whom the law don't punish, in other words, this school is for the placements of youths who'd not been charged criminally. Based off of the laws of handling of the matters of juvenile events, like the youth who'd murdered his classmate in Hsinbei City, the fitting means of reforming the teens, will be left to the juvenile courts to, mandate to these, institutions.
The atmosphere of the school where the teen was murdered, was now, really low, there were the memorial stations set up, for the fellow students to get the folded paper cranes, and the letters to be placed.
This case started up the debate of the instructor's right to discipline the students. The C.E.O. of the Hsinbei Parenting League, Su pointed out, that after this incident, there may be more and more parents, who will, take their children out of the public school setting, and placing them in the private schools, because the private schools used a stricter disciplinary means, it puts the parents' mind, at ease; and looking now, at the public schools, the instructors did NOT even have the rights to discipline the students, he'd criticized, "this is a very mistaken policy in education", that this is not what should be happening.
Su criticized, that the education now, overemphasized the students' rights and democracy, that it is, quite, irresponsible, even Tsai used the official statements, the families with the ordinary parents wanted the schools to discipline the students well enough, the laws should give the schools some flexibility of deciding if they are to check the students for illegal things in their backpacks.
Su pointed out, that the private schools looked after the students for long periods of time, the parents who work believe, that this gives them the security of mind, that they can get off work, and wait for their children to come home for supper, or to get the packed meals to the schools, and, the public school tuitions, plus the cram school fees, it's actually, roughly the same as the private school tuitions, if the policies of education don't change, then, the parents' sending their children into private schools may be trending in the future.
And, this is the belief of how it would be safer, in a private school setting, and it's still, misconceived, because even IF there are stricter disciplinary means in the private schools, that don't mean that the students will, behave themselves, but due to this incident, of how this neck-slashing happened in a public school setting, the public is now, misled into, thinking, that it would be safer to send the children into the private schools, and, there are just as many cases of violence in the private school settings as they're in the public.
