Using "separatism" as a "tool" to "teach" children discipline invites future "separatism." The children were "copying" what "blueprints" they have been given culturally by the "collective" society.
"One" student performed the "negative action." Yes, "tough love" is important. The school system needs to define "tough love" measures.
Using a combination of deep listening, compassion, and experiential modeling and tough love together is what our entire world is missing.
Maybe this vital issue needed to be addressed privately first. Afterwards, create a monthly or bi-weekly general "deep listening" meeting with Principal,Teachers and Students to "pave the way" for understanding "assimilation and connectedness."
Remember the song, "What the World Needs Now is Love, Sweet Love?" Let us take the labels off of each of us. The people that pass us in the street are just "blocks of wood."
When we begin to understand that "each" person is "us" separatism and hatred will abate.
Just look at how we "care" for one another? Do we listen with our "whole heart" when "someone" is talking to us? We are running on a treadmill going nowhere. America needs to slow down. We are all running to our grave. There is no other "real" place we are running.
