El Presidente Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 Teacher forced us to light up, allege pupils Wed, Aug 04, 2010 New Straits Times http://news.asiaone.com/News/Education/Sto...804-230370.html KULIM: More than 30 pupils of a school in Mahang, 34km from here, were allegedly forced by a teacher to smoke cigars as a punishment after they admitted to having tried smoking. The pupils claimed that the male teacher forced them to share two cigars between them in the school's science laboratory. They claimed that each pupil had to take five puffs. It was learnt that the incident, on July 25, happened after several pupils were caught smoking in the boys' restroom. The school disciplinary teacher then went to the Years Four, Five and Six classrooms and asked if they had tried smoking. When some pupils admitted, he allegedly told them to gather at the science laboratory. Year Four pupil Mohd Aiman Saidin said the teacher then scolded them before taking out two cigars and forced them to smoke. He said there were about 35 pupils in the laboratory, including a girl. His schoolmate, Mohd Zulfikar Aizudin Ahmad Zulfadli, said he felt dizzy and his throat was in pain after inhaling the tobacco smoke. Another pupil, Mohd Shazmin Aiman said he was down with fever following the punishment and missed school for five days. The pupils were too scared to relate the incident to their parents and it only came to light recently when one of the parents pressed for answers after noticing something amiss with his child. Aiman's father, Saidin Md Dali, 48, said the teacher had gone overboard by resorting to such punishment. "He should have conducted a proper investigation and consulted the school officials and parents on the best way to straighten out the children," he said. SK Mahang Parent-Teacher Association vice-president Abdullah Muda said he was disappointed with the teacher's approach and added that the incident should not have happened. He said forcing children to smoke cigars was unacceptable punishment and urged the relevant authorities to act swiftly. "His action will affect the pupils psychologically." Abdullah said he was informed that the school would be calling for a meeting with the pupils' parents to explain the incident.

Wicky Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 "They" are in charge. We're DOOMED! DOOMED I tell you!
samb Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 I think its a great idea, to keep kids off of tobacco. Just shouldnt have been done by the teacher. Its up to the parent to discipline their own kid.
Habanakane21 Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 He was forced to smoke a 5 pack of Guantanamera Bit harsh, don't you think
thechenman Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 He was forced to smoke a 5 pack of Guantanamera That's not just punishment...that is a potential death sentence.
PigFish Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 ... the school physician noted that since tobacco and Ritalin don't mix the children would have to do without their Ritalin for a couple of days which might cause a backup in the scheduling for the school psychiatrist. With the "shrink" out of the loop many students would have to start a regimen of phenobarbital as a stop gap meaisure. This could cause a shortage for Parliament which would require and emergency session and additional funding. It appears to this reporter that there are ample reasons here alone to ban tobacco usage!
First Lady Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 My auntie made all my cousins smoke a cigarette whent they were younger so that wouldn't smoke but she didn't do it to me... you guessed it I took up smoking LOLOL the others only smoked when intoxicated Maybe this might be the right idea to stop the younger kids from thinking cigarettes are cool
