Bullying is a major MAJOR issue in Pakistani schools and its independent of class it happens in peela and neela schools
Its a major issue everywhere around the world....
Kind of makes one question what kind of education the school is producing ...
Basically by throwing out religion they made sure kids wont be afraid the god upstairs is watching you 24/7 watching your each step and so on...
By throwing away discipline they told the kids they can get away with EVERYTHING!
IMO, it starts with improper child handling by parents as well as their treatment and training. As soon as parents looses the grip, the child slips and be left on mercy of time which sometimes indeed result as what happened in this story. Parents need to be friendly as well so the child will not only discuss every thing so also will listen and obey whatever decided by parents. Only a fool would end his/her life for someone else otherwise there is no such logic but in case of a child the burden lies upon the parents that need to keep a proper check & balance upon. Also, the extreme strictness sabotages the personality of child so also being over confident and blind trust will lead to such accidents. It is true that our culture never favor such kind of affairs though the proper solutions and and tackling is must. The stupidity of marriage in such an immature age clearly indicates about the kid's interest with films and dramas as well which is common now a days that parents do not care what exactly kid is watching on TV. My condolences to the family.
There is a narrow age when you can drill discipline into a child....When that age passes nothing you do will be helpful
1 of the easiest discipline is not letting the child get his way ALL THE TIME ...A simple NO can probably extend his / her life a lot more...
Parents now a days have given up on parenting in the name of "humane" behaviour....I am not sure how much white people USED TO beat their kids but it must be ALOT that they completely removed it from the whole society! So much that the kid can call social services if beaten/ threatened and many more.....so much that some kids misuse that "right".
Some Pakistanis instead of learning from such mistakes are rapidly trying to jump into similar situations of "taking orders" from children! A child is not supposed to be a boss until he/ she earned it...A child is supposed to be a child who doesnt know right from wrong hence why juvenile detention centers and not jails are their punishments...IF they are not supposed to know right from wrong HOW can they be in charge of making their own decisions and not listening to their parents as is done in todays world?
In Australia socialists say that 10 is the age when the child starts differentiating good from bad and hence can prosecute children from that age on wards....While some say teenagers are still kids...Well, there are 2 MAJOR problems:
1) When the child is a kid you make him boss and let him boss you and not listen to you....Evolutionary biologists and behavioral biologists will tell you, the child sensed a lack of alpha male and hence took that role.
2) When the child is old you refuse to acknowledge him as a young adult and give him responsibilities
BOTH screws up children in Pakistan!
Despite Pakistan being scrutinized under Western media followed by the tag along local media, it would be interesting to look at their own laws :

Then you also have the racist view:
Boy, 11, accused of Perth murder said to be inconsolable and in isolation | Australia news | The Guardian
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander kids made up 62% of all 10 and 11-year-olds in detention in 2012-13. That data is not available for WA, but the report notes that
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children made up 87% of all detainees aged 10 to 13 in WA in 2013-14.
To convict a child aged between 10 and 14 at trial, the prosecution must rebut the presumption that the child was not able to distinguish right from wrong and should therefore be deemed incapable of committing a criminal act. But the UN committee said that common law doctrine “results in practice in the use of the lower minimum age in cases of serious crimes”.
At any one time, one in 77 Aboriginal boys in WA is in detention. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in that jurisdiction are 53 times more likely to be in jail than non-Indigenous children, a rate o
f racialised imprisonment that Salil Shetty, secretary-general of Amnesty International, said was “much higher than even the rate at which black people are incarcerated in the United States, which is, as you probably know, the highest in the world”.
Back to the age of responsibility when a kid starts knowing what he is doing and will have consequences...or is held responsible for his actions...
It can vary based on how the child was raised ....but sadly text book nerds base it on the assumption of WHEN a child is ASSUMED to know...
This is from an Australian site:
Age of criminal responsibility
18.12 Children are not held criminally responsible for their actions until they have reached a certain age.
The age of criminal responsibility is 10 under federal law and in all jurisdictions except
Tasmania and the ACT where the threshold is
seven and eight respectively.
18.13 The age of criminal responsibility under the Crimes Act is generally consistent with standards in common law countries.
In England, for example, there is a conclusive presumption that a child
under 10 years of age cannot be guilty of a criminal offence. In
Scotland the age of criminal responsibility is
eight and in
Ireland it is
seven. In
Canada, the age of criminal responsibility is
12. In
New Zealand the age of criminal responsibility is
10.
18.14 The age of
criminal responsibility is generally higher in civil law countries. For example, in
France the age of criminal responsibility is
13. In
Norway and Denmark it is 15
