Too Much

I've just read in today's newspaper on the news about a nine-year-old girl was slapped by her disciplinary teacher for being 10 minutes late to school.

She was late due to heavy morning traffic jam in Puchong. The mother was only been informed of the incident when she fetched her daughter after school session.

According to the mother, she was shocked to see her daughter's face swollen. Furthermore, she claimed that the school ignored her complaint and rejected her request to see the disciplinary teacher.

If this was true, personally, I felt the action was too much. The matter could be tackle differently and a lot of other disciplinary actions could be imposed.

Through my experience, normally, we would loss our temper and felt like slapping someone's else face if the other person retaliated either using abusive or harsh words. However, a normal and mentally sound human being would not easily lose one's temper especially early in the morning over a trivial matter.

Hopefully, the parties involved should clarify on the actual incident as to clear the air.
