“I think when we talk about corporal punishment, and we have to think about our own children, and we are rather reluctant, it seems to me, to have other people administering punishment to our own children, because we are reluctant, it puts a special obligation on us to maintain order and to send children out from our homes who accept the idea of discipline. So I would not be for corporal punishment in the school, but I would be for very strong discipline at home so we don't place an unfair burden on our teachers.” PeopleThinkingChildrenIdeasHomeSeemsWould BeSchoolOrderStrongAcceptingTeacherSpecialDisciplineBurdenPunishmentObligationVery StrongUnfairReluctantCorporal Punishment Author:John F.

“Pride is a mental factor causing us to feel higher or superior to others. Even our study of dharma can be the occasion for the delusion of pride to arise if we think our understanding is superior to that of everyone else. Pride is harmful because it prevents us from accepting fresh knowledge from a qualified teacher. Just as a pool of water cannot collect on the tip of a mountain, so too a reservoir of understanding cannot be established in a mind falsely elevated by pride.” IfsThinkingFeelsMindUnderstandingWaterAcceptingStudyTeacherPrideHigherMountainAriseSuperiorsFactorsOccasionsDelusionPoolQualifiedDharmaReservoirs Author:Geshe Kelsang Gyatso

“The teacher will never be a parent. The parents are the parents. But they have to engage in some sort of active education beyond just teaching mathematics and French and English because the kids spend more time there than they do with their parents at that age.
