"Child abuse", what heartfelt words. Today, the Ctrip Parent-child Park incident has not subsided, and two cases of child abuse have been exposed in Guangxi, causing an uproar.
Perhaps these are just the tip of the iceberg of China's "Child Abuse Garden". What can we do except anger and crying?
Six young children in Hepu were punished by corporal punishment
Two teachers involved in the case were dismissed.
Kangkang (a pseudonym) is 5 years old and attends a class in Xiaohong Little Red Riding Hood Kindergarten in Lianzhou Town, Hepu County. On the evening of September 28th, a bruise on Kangkang's face caught the attention of her mother, Ms. Chen. "The lower part of the left cheek is black and swollen."
Ms. Chen suspected that Kangkang was injured by the teacher, so she asked the director to check the surveillance video. Ms. Chen saw in a surveillance video on September 28 that her son Kangkang was slapped by a female teacher many times.
Worse is yet to come.
1June 12, Ms. Chen continuously checked the monitoring in the park from September 18 to 28, and found that Kangkang was beaten by a female teacher surnamed Zhou almost every day.
"Either hit your head, or pull your ears, or pull your face." Ms. Chen said that on September 22, another female teacher surnamed Huang kicked Kangkang with her feet.
The reporter learned through reliable channels that in fact, in addition to Kangkang, five other students in the kindergarten were beaten to varying degrees, all of whom were the above two female teachers.
Ms. Chen said that after the incident, Kangkang was sent to Hepu County People's Hospital for treatment and was diagnosed with soft tissue contusion of the left jaw. In late June, 10, Kangkang was sent to the People's Hospital of the Autonomous Region for examination. The results show that his child's sensory integration ability is seriously out of balance, and he needs psychological treatment and drug treatment when necessary.
After many times of communication, the kindergarten involved agreed to compensate Ms. Chen for 8,000 yuan. However, Ms. Chen does not agree with this plan, and has already handled the alarm, and the police station in the jurisdiction has accepted it. In addition, relevant departments are conducting judicial appraisal of Kangkang's injury.
In this regard, the garden has admitted its mistake and fired two teachers involved (one is the class teacher and the other is the life teacher). The education department of Hepu County has also been involved in the investigation.
Head, ears, face ... what an angry move. However, in the subsequent child abuse incident, what made people even more angry was the attitude of the garden.
A teacher in Yulin hit the child with a stick.
The director said his parents were killed when they were exposed.
A few days ago, some netizens posted that two teachers of Little Swan Tengfei Kindergarten in Wang Lu Village, Yuzhou District, Yulin City had long-term violent abuse of children. The reporter of South China Morning Post launched an investigation on this, but encountered a series of strange things in the interview. ...
The poster said that on June 3rd 165438+ he found bruises on the child's thighs. After patient inquiry, I learned that the child was beaten by the teacher in kindergarten. On the afternoon of the 4th, he went to the kindergarten to check the monitoring and found this scene of 654381October 23rd.
165438+1At noon on October 9, the reporter contacted the poster Mr. He, who admitted that the post was sent by him and made an appointment with the reporter for an interview on the morning of 10. He also said that when he went to ask for advice, the attitude of the garden was very cold.
To the reporter's surprise, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon on the 9 th, Mr. He called and said that after the intervention of the Education Bureau, the kindergarten had expelled two teachers and gave parents financial compensation. As for the amount of compensation, he said it was not convenient to disclose it. In addition, he said that he had signed an agreement and promised not to let the media report this matter.
10 in the morning, the reporter came to the gate of Little Swan Tengfei Kindergarten and saw that everything was normal in the kindergarten. After the reporter showed the purpose of the interview, the kindergarten director said straight away: "This matter has subsided. Parents still dare to call you a reporter, not afraid that the government and leaders will kill him? "
The reporter asked, how could the government and leaders kill him? The director said: "Under the supervision of the government and the education department, this matter has already lost money to parents. Does he think that only my kindergarten is exposed? This has affected the image of local education. "
Regarding how to deal with the two teachers, the director said that he would not accept the interview and immediately closed the kindergarten door.
10 in the afternoon, the reporter tried to interview the local government and the education bureau, but failed. 1 1 At 5: 20 pm, the director of the Education Bureau of Yuzhou District of Yulin City sent a message to the reporter saying:
It is a fact that corporal punishment is reflected on the internet, and both parties have agreed to solve this matter through economic compensation;
At the same time, the garden has issued a rectification notice, requiring the garden to immediately suspend classes for rectification;
It is also known that the garden has dismissed two teachers involved on 10.
Who should pay for child abuse?
It is not surprising that the word "child abuse" has returned to the public eye. In recent years, child abuse incidents have occurred frequently. According to the "Netease Digital Reading" data survey, the way children are abused is shocking.
After leaving anger, have you ever wondered why child abuse keeps appearing in newspapers?
Now that we have entered the era of two children in an all-round way, the problems of difficulty and high cost of entering the park have obviously increased, and there is a big gap in educational resources.
It is in the market state of less standards, less supervision and high degree of specialization that high-quality supply is timid and low-quality supply is full of it, which makes the phenomenon of child abuse spread due to lack of teachers, loopholes in supervision and legal gaps.
Child abuse reflects teachers' weakness.
A research report by the Institute of Education Policy of Southwest University in 20 16 shows that by 20021year, the gap in preschool education will reach its peak, with nearly 1 10000 kindergartens, and the gap between preschool teachers and caregivers will exceed 3 million. The supply of preschool education funds is far from meeting the future demand.
In addition, the low educational background of kindergarten teachers has also become a common phenomenon. According to the data of "Netease Digital Reading", the educational background distribution of kindergarten directors and professional teachers in China in 20 16 years is as follows: undergraduate only accounts for 2 1. 18%, junior college accounts for 56.37%, and junior college accounts for 22.45%; The ratio of kindergarten teachers to kindergarten teachers is only 1: 17.7.
In reality, many kindergarten teachers are not professionals and even lack basic legal awareness.
This is the case with the head of Little Swan Tengfei Kindergarten mentioned above. Who gave her the courage to face the reporter so confidently? Such a person can also run a kindergarten as a director?
The weak teachers and low educational background of kindergarten teachers will inevitably lead to the decline of education quality and backward teaching management, which will directly lead to the occurrence of child abuse.
The child abuse incident reflects the lack of supervision.
Some experts believe that child abuse incidents are more exposed to the shortcomings and loopholes of current child care services. Some insiders also pointed out that the organizers of today's 0-3-year-old child care institutions mainly include local women's federations, health and family planning, general trade unions and other departments and groups, and supervision is also "who cares who".
In the above-mentioned child abuse incident in Yulin, the director of the Education Bureau of Yuzhou District of Yulin City also expressed helplessness:
At present, the education department has no administrative law enforcement power over kindergartens that run schools without a license, and there is no better way to rectify unlicensed kindergartens that refuse to implement rectification by issuing rectification notices. For kindergartens that refuse to implement administrative punishment, it can only be suggested that the government of the jurisdiction organize relevant law enforcement departments to form a joint law enforcement team and take compulsory measures to ban kindergartens that run schools without licenses according to law.
Without supervision, some kindergartens are lawless. Wu Zunmin, a professor at East China Normal University, believes that a unified supervision department should be defined to prevent the phenomenon of "regardless".
Child abuse requires laws.
While sympathizing with abused children, netizens are also very concerned about what responsibility the abuser should bear.
Hu Ruijiang, director of Zhejiang Houqi Law Firm, said that so far, child abuse charges has not been established in China's criminal law, but the crime of ill-treatment of ward and ward has been added in Amendment 9 of the Criminal Law. But so far, there is no specific judicial explanation on how to determine the circumstances are bad.
In China, child abuse, no matter how bad the behavior is, has brought great harm to the child's body and mind-as long as it does not constitute the child's major disability, the abuser is at most fired, fined, publicly apologized, and finally administrative detention-which simply does not rise to the level of criminal cases.
Therefore, some media have called for China to enact a child abuse law urgently, raise the illegal cost of child abuse, and punish child abuse in the name of law.
