I have had a nose cold since the last Monday. That's so anonying... Thanks to the cold, I can't completely consentrate on what I want to do! What a shame!!! However, I think I have no fever, so you don't have to be worried about catching my cold although I will take part in the today's third and fourth class IE2 Core (You had better stay away from me.). I'm sorry if you catch my cold...
Just now, I finished the media report, which is written about the news that a former instructor at a reform school was sentenced to nine months in prison because he repeated acts of violence against a 16-year boy between March 2008 and February 2009.
Do you know reform school? Reform school is a national facility which belongs to the Justice Ministry, and children who are supposed to receive the execution of a punishment are imprisoned there. We can call it in Japanese, "少年院." That's right! You know this word very much!
Why did he commit acts of violence against boys? Of course, there is a valid reason. In fact, the relationship between the instructor and boys is similar to that which is so familiar to us, and then what is needed in modern education and society? Physical punishment? If physical punishment is needed today, why have the today's educational system(pressure-free education) started? What is the purpose?
I am looking forward to the IE2 core class. Let's hang in there, everyone! Of course, I will hang in there... Maybe I will...
