This is really f*u*c*ke*d up, what is going whith the so called teacher, if it was my son, she was next to follow. I'm disgusted in the manner the educators behave this days, if they aint sexually abusing our kids they are killing them. I think government needd to change their recruitment process when coming to teachers. they should get evaluated by psychiatrist before being employed maybe this nonses will stop.

Its very impossible to beat a child to death. That Educator uyisigaxa Mabhandi, meaning unesihlungu sezinyoka ezinoshevu omubi noqindezelayo. Makusetshenzwe isidumbu sengane, Usindile thishela ndini, cause if it was my child ubuzobona u Casbar Day light during your lecturing.

she does not need anger management, a long sentence (life) with hard labour is what she needs

Im extremely disgusted, annoyed, irritated by such behaviour in our country, Our children are not safe anymore ,anywhere, be it at school they get beaten up by retards that are suppose to be guiding them and showing them the way, at home they are abused by so called family members. Now where are these little souls suppose to go to feel like children. This is really getting out of hand I so hope that the Ministers,social workers , police officers or whoever has the power to do something about this stands up and do something. And as for this teacher that did this to a seven year old boy I hope you read this " I pray that you never finf peace in your life , cause you are cruel , evil and heartless" I hope what you did to this little boy haunts you as you rot in jail , RETARD

They stone people to death for stealing... but for stealing this innocent childs life, the teacher only might only get fired? This is not fair. only God may judge, but forgive me for being human, I would like to see her die very slowly and very painfully... May God be with the parents and may his little soul rest in peace....

Wow!
School is supposed to be a safe environment for children to learn. This 'teacher' is nothing but a brutal tyrant, a dictator with no civility, an animal that uses her position of trust to inflict harm on the most defenseless of our society, our children. What is she teaching to the ones that actually attacked the child? The school board must be harsh, if not, it means the school board cannot be trusted with our children! Let her teach inmates in the toughest prison - that house adults - while she serves a life sentence -- for the rest of her life -- NO PAROLE!
