New Delhi - An 11-year-old Indian schoolgirl died after a teacher allegedly made her stand in the baking sun as punishment for not doing her homework, reports said on Friday.
I'm utterly disgusted. Horrified. I pray the girl peace.
Forcing a child to start in the sun as a punishment over homework?
This is disgusting. Stupid and pointless.
I hope there will be justice.
While luckily, the western world has stopped such physical punishments but that does not mean schools are better.
There are still things to improve, psychologically.
Homework should be stopped.
The benefits of homework is a illusion. You may think it helps with memorization but it brings burden.
It brings stress and conflict to relationship with parents.
The emotional negativity it unnecessarily causes.
The homework can be pointless as well forcing junk and trivial knowledge.
Children should not be forced to do things against their will.
Plus it limits learning time in the REAL WORLD and time with their family.
Homework is not helping. Leave work from school at school, not in my personal time.
