Our children are growing up understanding that Violence, Intimidation, Thuggery, Corruption and everything evil is the way to success.
In cultures like Sri Lanka role models are very important to minds. Therefore when our children see how politicians get away with anything, they grow up wanting to emulate such behaviour.This is not surprising !0 8

Everyone can see a disastrous pattern. Everyone has different perspectives and opinions. Everyone has a legitimate point if one chooses to read selectively. No one however, seems to know what to do about the. As a start, how about we begin with our own homes and ourselves, work on things we have a relative degree of control over...

This is not Sri Lanka, JVP and UNP needs to do this and they are doing this. See the good things also in the country. I think U have a brain to see the good side as well.

it's funny to see Sri Lankans talk as if violence exists only in Sri Lanka. violence in schools is a major issue in even the developed world.
humans by nature are violent but you guys make these useless comments when you see a news you are like village women who gossip on the roadsides.6 3

Ha Ha HA you see only what is done by the opposition.
What about the things the ruling party politicians did ?
Gas Benda, Threatening the high priests , crashing the vehicles of monks, assaulting the govt. officials by the thugs of the ministers, arresting the students hooted at a minister
These are just a very few examples.
When wetting your comments do not take only side.3 5

Oh! c'mon guys. This's nothin new. Even we fought in schools when we were kids. Anyway the police have every right 2 arrest these bullies. After all it's an assault on a minor commited by minors

i'm surprised you didn't blame the west for this.
and although the media can now shed light on this subject, people love blaming current politicians ignoring the fact that this is far from being a recent phenomenon. violence in schools have been common for generations0 1

Darren,
This is not because only of JVP & UNP. Because of PA as well. Every politician is to be blamed. Not only them. The public also responsible for these. MR to PooR, Ranil to Anil, Sarath to Gamlath0 1

I doubt any politics here. We should not try to link politics in each and every case.

Asela is right .If you analyse the violent rampage you have to go back to 30 years war more prominantly the Rajapakse War which was televised over the State televisions giving a one to one commentary showing aeial bombing, multi barrel guns taking the lives out of civilians though known as a humanitarian war. No former governments ever capitalised so much of a war. What we are witnessing now is the result that that there is no negotiations but hit tight after a an argument.

Good Move. These student fights should be stopped at school level and they should be disciplined properly to avoid similar issues in the future and maintain peace in our education system

Thanks to UNP and JVP who encourage people to violate Law and order.Ranil is telling Colombo citizens not to pay rates JVP is telling University Students to storm offices and attack and kill officials.Attack opponents with Computer monitors and crush their heads.Yet they demand that the police should not take any action against those.ah Monks trying to change the Law.This is outrages.

Exactly! Thanks to those morons in Parliament setting an example. Let us derogate from some of this Human Rights and Children's Rights bullshit and reintroduce Corporal Punishment. The earlier generations lived with it successfully.

See the pattern - first in parliament, then on roads, next at universities, now at schools
next at homes - you will see yourself fighting with your wife, husband, children and killing eachother.

You are 70% correct and schools are not teaching discipline but bent in making Doctors, Engineers , Lawyers etc. . devoid of noble human qualities. This attributes to the balance30%.
