"Today is a very happy day, you hate."
"Do you want to show your parents, to all our parents to see your virtues, and other parents are annoyed to see you?"
"Roll, get up, stand up and go."
"You hate it every day, do you want the whole class to hate you?"
...
A video of a primary school teacher reprimanding a child circulated online.
In the video, the teacher's tone is aggressive, and he mercilessly criticizes the little girl sitting in the front row in front of the whole class.

The little girl in the shot seems helpless, and can only silently bow her head in the face of criticism, her fingers contract nervously, and she can feel the psychological pressure that the child is under at this moment.
With the teacher's further criticism, the declaration can not be because she alone delayed everyone's time, which aroused public indignation, and the whole class began to join the "sanction" side.
Everyone shouted in unison, asking the little girl to hurry to the back and stand.
The accusatory voices were uniform, and the girl remained helplessly in her seat, her eyes aggrieved as if she were pleading.
After that, all the classmates even called her "nasty" together, and as you can see from the video, there are classmates in the back row who began to point at her.
In just two or three minutes, the girl was isolated from "a member of the extended family" to "the enemy of everyone."
After some accusations, another teacher stepped forward and took the girl out of her seat.
At this point, the "trial" is over, and in the video, you can still hear the teacher saying that the girl is "annoying".
Why should little girls be criticized in this way? In another video, it can be seen that in the performance to welcome the New Year, a boy stood next to him and recited "Man Jiang Hong", perhaps because the voice was too loud, causing discomfort to the girl.
The girl covered her ears and looked back frequently, as if looking for any classmates who were as frightened by the sound of the speech as herself.
But this move completely angered the teacher, who said that the girl's behavior of covering her ears in the front row when filming made the whole video ugly.
"People are performing there, do you cover your ears and respect others?"
And in the video we see that it is obviously not just a girl who covers her ears.
Probably because the voice of the reciting classmates was indeed too loud and penetrating, the children in the front row were uncomfortable with it. Maybe everyone just wants to make a joke in this way to make fun of the loud voice of the speech students.
The teacher's way of dealing with it has turned the classroom into a trial scene, and the so-called criticism of education is more like a bottomless spiritual pressure.
As a result, after this "ordinary little thing" was spread to the Internet, it completely ignited everyone's emotions.
The teacher blames everyone, the whole class shouts that the girl is annoying, the little girl looks helpless and pitiful...
On the surface, it is a criticism of education, but from the perspective of adults, the collective pressure on the spiritual level is obviously the bullying of children by teachers.
Many people take the perspective of little girls and parents, and being blamed at this level at this age is likely to leave a shadow for a lifetime.
Discomfort, anger, empathy... All kinds of emotions quickly exploded, and the matter quickly received the attention of the whole network.
After a day of public opinion bombardment, the school involved has issued a statement apologizing, and the matter has come to an end for the time being.
But apparently, in the case of spiritual bullying in schools, the little girl will not be the last victim.
You know, before the video is posted on the Internet, it is first posted to the class group by the teacher involved, and there is a feeling that their education method is very appropriate, and they must inform the meaning of the child's parents.
(Reaction of the child's parents)
The teacher took the initiative to release the video, which means that from her own point of view, such an act of calling on all students to carry out mental suppression is reasonable, can be made public, and should be done as a teacher.
Educators have such a preconceived position, which is far more terrifying than the emotional impact that things would have brought to everyone.
And such incidents occur all over the world.
In a recent incident in the United States, a Teacher in Florida mocked a student's grades and intelligence, used race or nationality to demean personality, and was repeatedly complained about over a decade.
But she took advantage of the principal's leniency, union protections, and gray areas in the school district's disciplinary policies to avoid harsh disciplinary action and interference.
After a series of investigations, her credentials will be suspended for six months. You also need to pay a $1,000 fine and attend a class management course.
Six months later, she can still go back to the classroom and teach the children.
Mental bullying is difficult to define boundaries, and in a question about the legal forum, some students said that they had always wanted to know whether the teacher's behavior was legal.
From the fifth grade, the teacher teased her in front of the class, insulting the volume of her normal voice, insulting her performance, and mocking her for taking medication for autism.
Now, when she wants to protect herself through the law, she finds it difficult to achieve.
The City of Yokohama, Japan, reported an incident in which a 40-year-old homeroom teacher bullied specific students, ignored them in group activities, did not assign tasks, and did not have the same full meals as other classmates.
Many students have become afraid of school and dare not go to school, and after discovering the long-term abnormality of their children, some parents try to communicate with the school.
But the school's response has been ambiguous. It was only after parents sent emails to the school through lawyers demanding disciplinary action from the teachers involved that the school began to face the matter squarely.
The results were not satisfactory, and the teachers involved were only removed from the students and could still take up management positions in an environment that did not contact the students.
From this, we can also see that similar incidents have limitations in the way they are handled: if there is no clear evidence and consequences of harm on the student, it is difficult to punish the teacher involved.
After all, if there are still traces of physical bullying, the child knows that he has been bullied and can take the initiative to inform the parents.
That spiritual bullying becomes a complete "dark room": once the educator's own position is not correct, he will take the mental suppression of the child as a matter of habit.
Children at this age do not have enough expression ability and cognitive level to tell their parents what happened to them, cannot reconstruct the scene, and cannot conclude that they have been bullied.
Some teachers guide group emotions without knowing it, and it is easy for the children to blame others, shirk responsibility, and lose empathy... In the subtle cultivation of the psychology of tending to bully and isolate others.
School bullying incidents will also breed from this.
And how many children will be isolated and bullied because of this psychological suppression, become inferior, sensitive, suspicious, and carry an intractable shadow in later life.
We simply can't imagine it.
As many netizens said, it is difficult not to remember her own experience when she sees the little girl's scared and wronged look.
More than a decade or twenty years ago, everyone's awareness of psychological problems was generally insufficient, and similar incidents were quite common. I believe that when you see this, you can also recall some unpleasant episodes.
In this environment, the child is easily influenced by the teacher to become the perpetrator or victim.
Invisible injuries are often more frightening. In today's incident, if there is no video flowing out, perhaps the girl's parents will never know how much the child has been wronged at school.
And when this kind of "small thing" can also detonate the public opinion of the whole network, we see that more and more ordinary people pay attention to the impact of psychological and spiritual injuries on life, and are willing to speak out and promote progress.
This, perhaps, is the dawn we can see in similar events in the future.
