[GPGT] PSP's Stephanie Tan denounces the lack of strong action for bullying in Schs! Calls for MOE to be proactive and conduct direct investigations!

[charleslee1989]

hm.. the bullying and school and MOE's lax approach to bully is not only after GE, it is been like that since many years or at least in my personal experience as father of P4 boy, I personally noticed this in last 2 years

(some) school will not punish bully or in general student anymore, even when I as parent told them to punish my son if he cant follow protocol

Note: my son was bullied and school kept making excuse no evident, no witness, and blame my (mid autistic) son for starting the issue

What you told me was exactly what Stephanie told me just a few minutes ago on the schools being weak and gaslighting the victim.

One would have thought having an ex-army general for MOE should toughen schools up but it didn't materialise at all.

Inaction or tardiness is not favouring the bully but it is sure as hell being bias against the bully victim. There's a DM or OM who is likely to be a retired SAF/SPF officer to follow up on this thing promptly leh.....So you are saying the school staff are JLB?

Turns out blasting it on social media did get a lot of attention from MOE who went to gaslight the victim afterwards as you see below lol.....



This is disturbing....Do you have a recording of it?

@Eliwood , please check with your fellow cadres Jo Teo and Desmond Lee if this kind of gaslighting of a school-going minor is allowed in the mass media, thanks!

Suggest u read the CNA article before jumping to the girl's defence so unequivocally.

Do u not find it odd the girl's parents removed their request to change school subsequently?

Agree. There shd be clear MOE guidelines on behaviours that constitute bullying and associated punishments that must be meted out, so that all schools have to enforce consistently.

Cctv is also essential to ensure sch remains a safe environment.

Oh, so you are saying it's alright to issue death threats and bodily harms threats to a kid's family just because that kid used racial slurs and used a "don't friend that person" comment? and wait, add an assault to that kid as well. That means in your books, Arrifin Sha would have been well within his rights to issue death threats to his teammate and punch her who used a racial slur?

As in why the girl's parents removed their request, that can be down to many issues and it is not a point for you to attempt a smear campaign against a family who got threatened with death and bodily harm.

2 wrongs doesn't make a right. I'm really disappointed with you, your political leaders and their media machinations for trying mount a smear campaign against someone who got threatened with death threats.

Ur memory seems really poor.... U can see my previous post below on death threat and bullying in general.

Also, how do u link acknowledgement of the girl's wrong action (which oddly u seem incapable of doing) contributing to the event to condoning death threat?

Does PSP believe accountability shd only run one way even tho in ur words, 2 wrongs have been committed? This is really biased and ironic considering Stephanie's call for neutrality haha...

But not really surprising cos it has been established that PSP tends to jump the gun and be dogmatic abt positions (LMW's qns on SC vs FT haha).

Oh by the way hope u r not too disappointed in ur attempt to drum up support for ur position in the other thread haha.

Heard on the radio that MOE n school claim the gal was also at fault n contribute to the events, anyone know what did the gal do to deserve this?

Death threat and bullying is definitely wrong and shd be punished, which has been done. The 3 kids have been suspended and police are investigating. I fully support that.

It is just funny how PSP likes to jump the gun for political points, like how u r doing now, for the hawker/NEA case and what PSP said abt tariffs haha.

So weird cos PSP is mainly laolang party, yet still so naive to jump the gun without knowing the full story haha.

He is silent so far.
If the BRAIN did not do anything, what can the present guy do ?
To be honest, I also dunno what to do.
I dun have the resources to investigate all the bullying cases in every school.
It should be in the numbers of 10k cases.

Which means that there are 20k parents out there whose child is a bully.

Isit the Bullies have Big Shot parents? Why the school and moe behave like so afraid to handle them? Bullies are still Bullies. Schools no longer Safe place for kids. it think maybe hangout at void deck even safer.
