Government contributed to problems at schools

I was puzzled to read on the Internet that Parliament has passed a law allowing random search of pupils at schools.

Of course, that is legitimate considering the security of both students and teachers during school hours. One may ask: who is responsible for the recent bad behaviour by children in our schools? The answer is, the government itself.

Our government has passed laws that absolutely eliminate powers from school teachers to have full control at schools.

This has resulted in all sorts of problems erupting at our schools like murders and assault.
