What the hell is going on in the schools today?!?

Have you watched 24 Oras kanina? 

SERIOUSLY! Grabe... Nakakabagabag.

I was preparing dinner when I heard the news. The first one is about "Binatilyo namatay sa suntukan..." and the second one was "2 estudyante nahimatay dahil sa brownies." Both happened inside a school. My God! Bakit ganyan?!?

While listening to the news, pumasok agad sa isip ko yung younger brother ko. I know he's in college already, but in my eyes (and in my mom's eyes), he's still the bunso of the family. I can't help to be protective of him. (Ewan ko na lang kung pano ba ko kay Bulilit.) Pagkadating na pagkadating pa lang ni Utot (Sorry! Pet name ko yan sa kanya.),Nilitanyahan ko na agad sya...

Me: Hey you! Wag kang makikipagsuntukan sa school ha, and don't accept brownies from others!

Utot: Huh? Why?

Me: Ayan, na-news, yung isa namatay sa suntukan. Yung isa nahimatay sa brownies. Nilagyan ng drugs. Blah. Blah. Blah. Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.Blah.


Utot: Okay. But sa tingin mo makikipag-away ako sa itsura kong 'to? *smiles*


When he was a kid, I'm the one who fights his classmates when they pick on him. He was very frail kasi before. But now that he's older and taller, I'm not that worried about sa suntukan part. He's not the type who gets into fights, he would rather resolve arguements in a diplomatic manner. And if ever he have gotten in a fight, I'm quite sure he can depend himself naman. Para san pa ang pagtrataining nya.

It's the drug thing I'm worried about. Dun kasi sa news, mismong kaklase nung biktima yung nagbigay ng brownies. Imagine, kakilala nila mismo nagawa yun sa kanila?!? Tsk tsk tsk tsk! Nilagyan ng drugs yung pagkain. Why would she do that in the first place diba? Something's seriously wrong with that.

Nakakapraning naman. Wala na atang safe ngayon. Dito ako sa issue na 'to talaga nabahala. Si Utot kasi has alot of friends now, na hindi ko kilala, hindi na abot dun yung radar ko. I can't spy on him anymore. And natututo na din syang pumunta kung saan-saan. Si Utot kasi he can get by his needs kahit wala syang allowance. He has friendly-friends daw kasi.  I asked him pano ka kumakain sa school. May nanlilibre daw or may nagpapakain sa kanya. Oh God! What if someone drugged him diba? (Knock on wood!) Ano na lang mangyayari sa kanya?

The two girls were kinda lucky in a way kasi hindi sila nagalaw or ano. Malay nyo diba may masama palang balak sa kanila kaya sila drinugs.

Naisip ko tuloy, as a parent, you would assume na safe ang anak mo sa school, tapos biglang may mangyayaring ganyan. Bakit may namamatay sa suntukan? Anong ginagawa ng mga teachers at guards dun? Bakit may nakakapasok na drugs? Is it time para maglagay na din ng K-9 units sa schools?

What the hell is going on in the schools today?!? Seriously.
