    The boy was wrong in taking a knife to school.. what example will it set to other kids... i dont think school was wrong..

    but they would have handled it in a mature way.. they would have called his parents first .. spoken to them and try to understand what kind of environment the boy is living in... because its not only his fault,... even his parents are at fault.. when a boy has the guts of taking knife to school.. he might have done many other things aswell which the parents have not noticed... too much pampering or just living them to themselves is the major issue which is the reason for kids misbehavior.. Sad that the kid lost life.. he could be guided to right path.. but due to the maturated act by school and and due to absence of parenting we lost a kid...

    Teacher should have called parents to meet them at staff room instead asking boy to bring them along with him .

    Its same, teachers directly calling, or asking the student to bring his parents. In both situations, parents will ask the son about the reason and this is what the son did not want to face - answering his parents. Probably he created such a halo in their minds about his school life that he doesn't want them to realize that the actual condition is the opposite.

    There are two core features that mostly contribute to such a situation as this. Empathy and apathy. This depends on the contribution of the parents and care rendered during the upbringing of a child till he reaches his teens. In most of the working middle class families, both parents work to make ends meet for a comfortable tomorrow...for themselves and their children. In a fast moving world with all the hi-fi lifestyles mostly attainable through freebies which is a common trend, loneliness is the dreaded factor that has a repercussion on the child ...as a result, a child tends to seeek company ... good or bad to pass his time. Parents fall gullible to their children's continuous demand and can't figure out what is good or bad for their children leaving them in the lurch. That's precisely where the problem lies. With the advent of strict rules and policies in our country going for a toss, pornography and internet becomes an ideal partner not only ruining the child in the process but making it difficult for the child to rationalize between good and bad. Here lies the problem. It seems this could have been the turning point in Venugopal leading to the sequence of events that transpired. God alone knows how many Venugopal's fall in the same bracelet and how many more recurrences one would get to see in the coming days.

    Rest in Peace . I am sure he was worried about the wrath of the parents.

    Calling the parents of the Kids is very common in Mangalore as well. I faced this mainly from High School and it continued till my graduation.

    Many people I know were bringing random person to the school including rikshaw drivers when I was in High School.

    I want to share this incident to readers. There was a retired banker and professor heading business management department in one of the famous colleges in Mangalore. My friend was asked to get his parents to the college and he was told he will not be allowed to go to the class until he brings his parents.

    My friend stood the ground and said that he will not ever bring the parents to the college as it means end of college for him. He was out of the class for almost a month before the said professor got him back to the class. My friend never brought his parents to the college ever.

    With due respect to the departed soul. RIP

    How can the parents hold the school responsible for their son's death ? He brandished a knife during a fight. They may not even be knowing that he was carrying the weapon to school. Meaning, he was growing out of hand but didn't want his parents to know about it.

    First the parents must mend their relationship with their children. School is second, home is the first school. My sympathies are with them at this time of sorrow.
