It's so funny how my father is pro corporal punishment since he believes the lack of it is why there seems to be a rise in bad behavior amongst minors.

But as I look back on the stories he told about his childhood, it only emboldened my current beliefs of how it's ineffective and harmful.

My father got beat as a kid, and guess what? He didn't improve because of it. I've heard stories about he and his brother fighting other boys, I hear stories about how lazy he was, and I hear stories about him being a disrespectful and ungrateful little shit.

He got beat a lot as a kid, even over things that weren't his fault. And while he has convinced himself that it made him better. In reality, it made him worse.

Like a lot of boomers, he is very aggressive at best and violent at worst. He thinks he is entitled to good behavior he never learned himself and won't show other people in return. He is repeating the cycle of abuse because not once did he question the way he was bought up.

But the most ironic part of all is that a lot boomers like him still grew up spoiled. And it's not just shit like throwing a tantrum at a Starbucks because they have to wait either.

Their parents made sure that they had what was best so they could have a secure future. But boomers are apparently the first generation whose children are living worse off than them, and it has led to a ripple effect where even the generations after are suffering from their selfishness.

But God forbid they actually take accountability for that. Oh no. It's everyone else's fault. It's us, their children and grandchildren, who are the selfish ones. Whatever happened to the good old days, am I right?

But that tangent aside, it made me realize that violence and bad behavior in school is nothing new. That has always been a problem. Schools just can't hide it anymore because children now have phones with them and they record this shit.

I remember a lot of horrible things that happened in primary and secondary school, stuff that would've made the news. But the schools managed to hide it.

They always have been, and they're successful too because they've managed to convince the public that it's a growing problem and not one that's been there for a while.

So, of course, people like my father are convinced that this is the result of corporal punishment being banned in schools.

But corporal punishment didn't help then, and it wouldn't help now. Since the fucking 15th century, people have been reexamining how we raise children, realizing that certain ways they're brought up can harm them.

People aren't mindlessly saying we shouldn't beat kids. They looked into it and realized it wasn't helping. Not to mention, they offer much better alternatives.

It should be common knowledge at this point how harmful corporal punishment is. Even to this day, we get studies proving that it's ineffective at best and outright harmful at worse.

But people like my father don't know that. They will mindlessly believe stuff like the Bible that outright say that beating children is good because it'll help mold them into well-adjusted adults. Yeah, let's ignore the fact that this thing is thousands of years old, we don't know the actual author, and they probably never dealt with a child or should've never been trusted with them to begin with.

I am not going to follow some old ass back. I am going to the fucking professionals and learning my shit because kids deserve better and we've been doing them wrong for long enough.

The racist bigoted way the first-world press talks about American school shootings

They often say that "the US has more school shootings than any first-world country" implying that third-world countries are rife with school shootings.

The US has more school shootings than ANY country.

Between January 2009 to May 2018 you know what the highest number of school shootings in a third-world country (Mexico) was?

8.

You know what the US number of school shootings in the same timeframe was?

288.

The 19 countries with the highest number of school shootings are almost evenly split between first-world countries and third-world countries, with the first-world countries actually being the higher number.

(Brazil had 2 school shootings, btw; same as Canada and France)

hey! out of interest do you ever do a reading for someone/ an idol and get strange or bad energy from them or is it more like energies change all the time?

Hmm yes that indeed happened already. Sometimes multiple - if not all, cards that fall out are very negative (the tower, the devil, a few positive cards that fall out reversed so now they are negative ect) and rarely we genuinely get bad vibes/energy (intuitively) from an idol or actor and later it turns out they actually did something bad. We both think that we should be careful who we trust, or at least not see everything through rose tinted glasses, as idols and actors are all humans too and every human has flaws, some make smaller mistakes and some bigger ones but we shouldn't just think "this idol is perfect! So kind and nice, couldn't hurt a fly!" You know how we mean it?

Especially because the bullying rates in Korea are really high and gruesome and most of the bullies don't even get punished, if they are minors they don't get a jail or juvenile sentence, in fact they can in most cases still continue to go into the same school - usually the victims are the knew who have to transfer to different schools. And we are talking about bullying like burning someone with a curling iron, humiliating them, SA, beating, literally torturing and in some cases even setting them on fire or using other objects like forks to hurt the victims. So we would just like to point out that yes sometimes we get bad vibes from some celebrities, but it's not overly often, vut stating aware is always a good choice! We will link a video that talks about multiple such bullying cases to spread more awareness of such things in general!

Trigger warning ⚠: please don't watch this (or not alone) in case you feel unwell about the upcoming things: violence, blood, fire/burning, stabbing, humiliating, school violence, bullying

No gore in the video, regardless a heavy topic

P.s it talks about multiple bullying cases and victims, not just one of them, two of those cases inspired the kdrama "the glory"

Texas to train children as young as nine how to treat wounded classmates.

at 9 i loved to play ww2 in the backyard but this is too much-’’Medic!’’

‘’As school shootings continue, Texas lawmakers are considering a new law that would require school districts train children as young as nine how to treat wounded classmates.’’

https://www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/should-fourth-graders-learn-how-to-treat-injured-classmates-proposed-legislation-would-require-it/

damn. things are sure taking a very weird turn.

It's the guns. Not trans people.

With the recent satanic craze-like assault on trans commuinities after the recent school shootings, it has become increasingly clear that the GOP want to use this in an effort to gain traction in their campaigns.

We witness a huge wave of claims that trans people are inherently more likely to commit school shootings because of HRT and worsening mental health. (I wonder why it's worsening?)

First, let's tackle the claims that mental health is the leading cause of school shootings. According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, 0,5 of adults aged 18 or older have attempted suicide at least once in their lives ( https://afsp.org/suicide-statistics/ ). At the same time, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, 82 percent of trans people have experienced suicidal thoughts and as much as 40 percent have attempted suicide ( https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32345113/ ). Matter of fact is that trans people are 80 times more likely to attempt sucide that their cis counterparts.

Meanwhile, there have been three* school shootings committed by people identifying as trans... Out of 2826. For your information that is ~0.106% of the total number of school shootings. And it's now that we bring to attention the fact that trans people make up around 1 to 2 percent of the population. That means that trans people are one THOUSAND percent less likely to commit school shootings than cis people, while being EIGHTY times more likely to attempt suicide.

*One only used it as an excuse to get out of being accused of committing a hate crime.

Mental health - while being a massive systemic problem - is not THE cause of school shootings.

And now we look at the remaining 2826 school shootings by cis people. And to be frank, it looks bleak. 98 percent of school shootings committed in America are by cis men, eventhough they only represent around 50 percent of the population.

Now through this little thought experiment, what have we found out? That the only group of people that are clearly overrepresented in school shootings in proportion to their population, is cis, white men. People who have a significantly better mental health than basically any other parts of the populace. So what is it that they have that makes them so much more likely to commit these acts of violance? Guns.

You'd be safer handing a gun to a trans person that a cis one.

I just found out that my public high school of 1,000 students having 15+ guards (many of which are armed) isn’t the norm?? Like people are talking about how we should have armed guards in highschools and I was like ??? don’t they do already do that..?

No, apparently at most schools they don’t.

In retrospect it makes sense because my school has a history of *that* kind of violence (I was literally ten the first time a person I was in class with brought a knife to school), and like the guards are kind of clueless, even the ones that are literal police officers.

This post isn’t me saying we *should* have armed police officers in all schools, because speaking from experience, that comes with its own set of issues. It's just a bit hard for me to imagine going to class or eating lunch without armed police officers walking around, you know? It makes me sad that that even needs to be a thing. At the same time though, I’m glad that this isn’t a thing at all American schools.

I’m tired

[photo I.D.: “To anyone wondering. This is a normal occurrence for American students.

This year, my school had upwards of a dozen shooting and bombing threats, and upwards of over two dozen REAL lockdowns. And to top it all off?

We had several shootings in my district.

We are trained for this. We are trained not to take a bullet to the skull or chest. We are trained to take our socks off and wrap them around a bullet wound to prevent our peers from bleeding to death. We are trained to pretend to play dead when a shooter enters the school, to cover ourselves in the blood of our dead peers if it comes to it to make it seem like we're actually dead.

What the fuck is wrong with you people?

You sit on your asses and bully and harass us kids, and then expect us to be able to handle all the shit you caused us.

Fuck off. Nobody deserves this.

I may hate myself but at least I know I don't deserve to be shot in my own damn classroom to protect your stupid gun laws

Feel free to screenshot this and put it on your story.

I don’t feel safe at school? do any of you guys feel the same way? I’m supposed to go to school to learn, and read, and make good grades. i can’t do any of that however because i’m in active $hooter drills. why?. a nine year old girl was targeted and killed because of her father in Tennessee. it’s not fair. she didn’t do anything. neither do the other kids that have to go through that. I’m scared that my fears of that happen will become reality because of congress. why is congress caring more about what bathrooms the kids at my school use, and what pronouns the use, when kids are dying at SCHOOL. fun fact congress, it doesn’t matter what we go by if we’re dead. well, besides the obituaries of course. The UK had a school shooting about 10 years ago. they immediately took precautions and made a gun control law. there hasn’t been one since. and yet there has been 13 school shootings this year, 10 deaths, and students are just getting thoughts and prayers. i deserve to feel safe. so does everyone else. they think tiktok is ruining our futures? we aren’t going to have one if someone doesn’t change. your thoughts?

I'm genuinely starting to reconsider my job as a pupil support assistant. I worked 20 hours this week and had to put in 7 reports of students trying to assault me.

Some days ago my classmate stopped talk with me. I wondered why, because last conversation we had was about hallucinations. At these weekends I was so anxious about it. I thought she left me, because I hallucinate. I cried at night and felt shitty for being too complicated. Today, at German lesson, she wrote me at paper message, that she's sorry she doesn't talk with me and that she misses conversations with me. She absolutely accept me and learns stuff, which I have. It makes me smile, that someone tries to understand me and doesn't give up on me. Reason, why she didn't talk with me, were boys in our class. They bully her for talking with me. I feel so sorry for her. She doesn't deserve that. I don't get why people bully someone who is talking to me. Where's the point? So, tommorow we're gonna go to director to ask for help, because we're both tired from bullying. Teachers didn't help to us at all, even if we asked about it for few times. I a lot hope that director will stop this. He seems fine and kind But knowing, that I'm not alone in this shit and that person doesn't leave me, even it's complicated, is amazing feeling. Together we're stronger.

Never really liked Song Hye Kyo. To me she has always been a one note actress. Nevertheless, decided to give The Glory a try. This certainly is a very different role for SHK…. But I can only imagine what someone like Bae Doona would bring to this performance…. Still an improvement over what SHK has done before. I hope she chooses a variety of roles and proves she has a range of acting skills.

Me, hearing about a gun in my county high school: oh no—

Radio lady: at westlake a different student ran up and got it.

Me: yea that tracks for them.

Teachers with guns- Oh boy

because the best way to deal with school shootings is to get more guns into schools. public schools, that is, because no one ever mentions if private schools will be included in such scheme. i attended public schools for twelve years (‘’twelve years of hard time’’) and i assure you that the last thing any sane person would do is arming teachers. teachers are overworked, under paid and stressed out. putting another burden on them will surely create a massive wave of resignations. hell, if i was a teacher and was told i had to pack iron to go into a classroom i would resign asap. what an american thing, trying to fix a problem like gun violence with more guns. the future is going to be an ugly mess.
