Thestar – Molested by schoolmates
I heard bout this yesterday, but then I keep telling myself it might not be happening. I heard it again this morning, I couldn’t have been listening to wrong information of the same thing 2 days in a row… hhhmmmm.
I was totally shocked and if not for my hands and legs working by themselves unconsciously I would have been involved in a accident. I am still in awe hearing such things about our schools though no here in Kay Elle but in Alor Star, but it’s still not comforting. If you don’t know what I am blabbing about, it’s the case of the female student being molested in class. Yes a female student being molested in class by a group of male students. And the headmaster dared to reply to the angry parent that because his daughter was beautiful then only the male students molested her. If I was the father, I would call for all of my might and hope that I was a barbarian and uppercut him to the ceiling. What an uneducated and uncivilized headmaster he is.
I am no parent but I feel the rage in me. I remember back then during my schooling days, no matter how crooked or naughty or bad was the students then, the most would be gang fights, swearing or may be paying truant. I remember even the notorious ones in my school respected teachers.
This piece of news saddened me as it shows that the young ones are becoming uncontrollable. I remember I welled up so much courage just to hold the hand of a girl, and I sweated like mad during the ordeal. Nervous you know… I’m very very shy. I don’t know why but the thought of sex was even present at that time, at least to me. I would not say no but it was not dominant and definitely I don’t see sex everytime I chat or see or have activities with anyone of the opposite sex.
The very thought of this brings anger and disappointment. It is at these times that I think that the end of the world is close at hand, or may be I am hoping for it. To see that mankind disappears in one meteor impact or what ever catastrophe would be so much comforting than having to walk, talk and live in fear. Better than to see mankind turning into savages running dry of humanity, becoming far worse than any animal or monsters.
I know that this may not be right, to think like that, but I have just seen and heard too much of these things to keep quiet and pretend nothing happened. What should we do with these people? Convict them like adults? Just because they are underage, does that mean they should be dropped of all charges and just be sent to some special schools for people like them? Is it fair that because of them, others should live in fear?
I do not know much of the law of things of that matter but I know this fellow student will be badly affected in her life later and it will take so much effort and time to heal her. I think it’s time for us to think back and may be these so called young adults should carry the weights of what they do on their shoulders. May be it’s time that we should convict them as adults for the things they did.
