After protection for our medical professionals, are our teachers going to need protection too? A 17-year-old student stabbed his coaching class tutor and later surrendered at the police station recently. The tutor is said to be stable and on his way to recovery. Reports stated that the student is believed to have attacked his teacher after being reprimanded for not focusing on his studies, sources said.

The teenager has been sent to a correction home. However, this puts the spotlight on just how sensitive some youngsters have become, how they have difficulty taking any kind of reproach whether at home or school, or in class, and attack the people who correct them.
