The recent incident about a student who was canned by a teacher because she called him as “aqua” (Translated: effeminate person) has caused an uproar among teachers, students, netizens and whatsnot.
The way I see it if I were the student, I would definitely get “double” from my parents. That’s why I never told them if I was punished by my teachers at school. Their perception is I must have done “something” to make the teachers to punish me. No explanation needed. I would always be the one who have done something wrong, not the other way around. Parents now? Well, they are different. The parents who are like my parents are extinct. This is the reality now.
