Please feel free to add your own lists and or field reports, I'll post what I see on a day to day basis. Just some unbelievable sh1t that goes on in my job. I teach for the very wealthy and get a lot of spoiled little rats in my classrooms.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most of the kids where I teach get daily allowances that are more than my wife and I make combined in a day. If you can imagine for a second these are children with wallets full of hundred dollar bills. I know one child who has entire sets of body armour and replica weapons in his house that he bought with his 'allowance'. He threw a huge tantrum at a formal dinner we were invited to when his uncle didn't immedeately present him with 'hung bao' or 'lucky money'. I guess his uncle usually gives him about $1000 every year. Well he went full retard, throwing food and calling his uncle quite a few swear words. His parents stood by and basically did nothing. My wife and I were just watching in amazement as he hurled $100 lobsters on the ground and smashed them with his feet. He also informed the uncle that his daughter was ugly and looked like a man, she was sitting next to him. They are somewhat important people in South China and this is their son.
Had a class a few months ago, young boys (12 yearsold). Put them in a line with their parents to play a fun trivia game. The mother of one of the boys got a question wrong to which her son turned around a punched her square in the face. She was crying and blood was gushing from her face. His father standing right next to him did nothing as did the mother. Later they bought him a toy and asked him to stop being so 'naughty'.
Three days ago I had a kid whip large chunks of erasers at me... he was about 15 or 16. 3 hit me, the third being large enough to hurt. I went over to his desk where he was sitting and demanded the eraser he was holding. He proceeded to scream "NO" and throw it in my face point blank.
I grabbed him by his collar and dragged him out of the class. His punishment by the school? To say "Sawwweeeee" and thats all. His parents couldn't be reached by phone, they turned them off.
Had a girl yesterday who was about 16 tell me infront of the entire class of 50 people: "I WANT TO FCK YOU"... she was actually just trying to say "FCK YOU" but it came out Chinglish. My wife was standing nearby mouth agape. She was playing a game and lost.
Had a young man of about 11, whip his **** out, pee on a child and then punch a student beside him. When I took him to the side of the class and said he needed to stand in the corner for a few minutes (This is all they do in China) he punched me in the face. I hauled him out of class, he kicking and screaming the entire time. When I refused to let him back in the class, the mother came back at me, rolling her eyes, lecturing me and calling me a bad person.
A friend of mine had an epic bastard code named COO BAO BAO (Cry baby in Chinese). Coo bao bao would frequently roll around on the floor of the classroom and pound the ground whenever anyone tried to move him. Apparently he had a problem being touched or told what to do or really anything. Well one day Coo Bao Bao got into an argument or fight or something with another kid. My friend tried to break it up. Coo Bao Bao waited until the other child was seated and when my friend had turned around, he bit into the kids shoulder so hard, that both of his front teeth came out and lodged themselves inside the kids arm. Blood squirted everywhere as Coo Bao Bao proceeded to chomp into the kid again and beat him viciously with his fists. As you can imagine the police were called and things were settled out of court (with money). Then Coo Bao Bao returned to school and was put into a different class where he continued to roll around on the floor. My friend says that its best that he be put into a corner and just isolated from the other kids as the school refuses to kick him out (his parents pay ALOT of money).
I have had children just refuse to do anything I ask and continue to go on doing whatever they were doing. I have been punched, kicked in the groin, slapped several times. Had people scream at me and throw numerous things when I asked for their homework.
I posted in another thread about a boy named Jim. This little pig threw a chair through a window on the 20(something) floor of a building then proceeded to climb out the window and try and jump out of the building after losing at a game against another boy. His mother was called to the school, which took away from her busy schedule (of shopping). Where she immedeately came with his PSP and some candy for him. That was her way of rectifying the situation. She apologized on behalf of her son as he flipped me the bird. Jim then threw a temper tantrum in nearly every class afterwards and eventually I just gave up and let him play his PSP in the corner. Jim was about 12 or 13.
There was an 8 yearold boy sitting on the front desk with his grandmother. She was on a call of some kind. The boy saw the phone and I guess wanted to play with it or something and tried to take it away from the grandmother. When the grandmother wouldn't give it up he started to hit her in the face and choke her. Eventually, the grandmother started to scream while the child continually beat her face in. Of course as you can imagine it ended in blood with the child getting control of the phone and the grandmother running off to the washroom to wash her face. Later we saw her carrying the boys bags while they went home, her face in a bloody tissue. About 3 or 4 teachers were standing nearby and my manager told me not to intervene as this is the way of things in China.
We have something here in China where the parents have a 'hands off policy' and largely ignore the children, only to give them candies or treats to 'stop' their behaviours. They never hit their children or reprimand them in any shape or form and you get about 90% of children acting like spoiled sh1ts. The marriages that are failing here in this generation are staggering..
Its called the little empreror syndrome and it is ruining the entire nation, please do not make the same mistake with your own children. I started punishing my students by making them scrub toliets and do laps around the school, the Chinese faculty got involved and said I was making the punishments to harsh and I would 'hurt their little hearts'. Now the only thing I am allowed to do is send a child to the back of a classroom, I'm not even allowed to send them out, just to the back.
