Teachers vs. Students

As Eminem said, "A lot of truth is said in jest,". We're here today to tell you the naked truth of what's going on in Princess Cinderella School. People have been getting punished for no reason at all, or simply for reasons from the past. Teachers are taking advantage of their power, intimidating students, and taking offences when we're actually not insulting them. Recently, a catastrophe broke out. A large group of students got suspended."We were just two minutes late after breaktime." they stated. According to teachers, they didn't just get suspended because of going to class late, but they got suspended because of things that happened in the past aswell. As soon as I heard that, I thought: "Well, when they did that they got kicked out of class. So they were already punished for that. And even if they weren't, it's their fault for not punishing them before, and they only do something about it now?". I still think that way. Because why couldn't they just punish them at that time? Instead of letting a huge pile of problems build up. It would've been easier for everyone. They also think that the fact that suspending people will change anything, but it really won't. As they say, us 'rebelious' children, aren't afraid of teachers, but teachers are afraid of us.--Now, about teachers taking advantage of their power: Many teachers have been beating or threatning to beat students. Or simply intimidating them. A few months ago, a teacher said that we only respect another teacher because we're afraid of that other teacher; which is not true. We respect the other teacher because he respects us. And then, the teacher who said that started to go to students and intimidate them, like "You're not cute! Okay?!" and accusing them of stuff that someone else did, without looking further into it or finding proof. So then I went to stand up for the student which was accused & yelled at. And then the teacher starts yelling at me -.-'. Eventually, he yells at the whole class, and asks (yelling): "Did I yell at you or disrespect you in any way?! Huh?! Answer me!" And the student, in fear said "No.." (grade 6). Do you guys get my point? Also, I remember very clearly when that teacher threw a student's table at the floor in angriness (grade 4).Here's another situation, with another teacher (grade 6). He got so angry at my friend, and whenever he got angry at anyone else he would pull them back to their place, or outside, or somewhere else. This is what many teachers do. I asked him "why are you so violent?" and yelling, he replied "I am not violent!" and hit the table with his hand.Also (grade 6), a teacher hit two of my friends, and since that's not allowed in any school; in a matter of fact: It's a crime. And we checked with a judge. Anyways, when I asked her, she answered with "Lara, don't irritate me!", and all I could do was shut up and stare at her.Also, we had a teacher teaching us (grade 6) who would block our computers, and talk about students to other students behind our back. When I went to stand up for myself, that teacher (anonymous) followed me a bit trying to explain himself xD. "It's the cat chase." - Marai Valenzuela, 6 Lotus. The point is, no teacher should talk about a student behind his/her back.We also had a teacher (grade 6, 1st term) who left, but he started to diss a friend. He called her fat. He said "Your body's big, what about your brain?". I was just sitting there like >__>
