Should Caning in schools be re-introduced?

I’m a firm believer in discipline. But I also got into a heck of a lot of trouble for refusing to be caned by seniors. We also did nothing close to the umang’aa you see in today’s kids. What do we do?

“[The] Ministry of Education has made it difficult for teachers to punish errant students by banning caning,”

Ekwe Ethuro was for it, Nzomo was for it, i was for it!
The ministry is against it, No more suspensions, expulsions canes, threatening of pupils, etc.

Schools are for those who want to be educated and not a holding pen for unruly kids!!
The holding pen for unruly brats inaitwa approved schools!!:D:D
I believe parents must either discipline their kids or be held liable for their kids actions!!
The parents of those kids who died should sue that bratty arsonist’s parents ili iwe funzo kwa wazazi wanaotendekeza watoto wao!!!:D:D

You’ve never met REAL kichwa ngumus.

It’s also therapeutic for the teachers :wink:

Caning for indicipline and not academic performance is ok.

You can’t beat a disorder out of a child. Hii upuzi ya Waafrika tires me. Kwani you guys live with your heads burried deep in the sand ama? Watu kadhaa wako na ADHD, wengine ni Autistic and several anxiety disorders ensuring the child is hyperactive and cannot learn the normal way. ADHD ni disease scientific maze, si psychology. And then Uko hapo unasema apigwe na akipelekwa kwa Psychiatrist atapewa dawa za kumsaidia kusoma. We africans! Choosing to apply knowledge brought by the white man selectively! Such magnitude of stupidity.

Btw, Caning was outlawed during the Kibaki first term Era as it was a UN initiative to stop it. Starting it openly would lead to Kenya being chastised by the international community which is contrary to our goals of keeping that donor money coming.

I personally instruct the class teacher to discipline my boy whenever he’s out of order, and she does. Kijana anapata viboko sasawa.

Kiboko is only effective when used sparingly lower classes and mostly as a threat. Mtu akisha anza kumea fudhi kiboko only serves to increase rebellion

unasomanga ministry circulars kweli?

Kids are not to be suspended, expelled or Transferred without the ministry approval! Jaribu kufanya any of those alafu mazazi akushtaki… Tunakuja hio shule yako tukuharishe. :smiley:

TSC and the ministry maintains that those are not solutions to these problems, solution ni ‘kuongelesha watoto’(talking to them).
Wakiwa threat kwa wengine ndio mnaweza kuwaforwad kwa alafu wachujwe.
Alot of things are involved in this… @Elgin ndugu yangu chunga sana usije ukashtakiwa
