Ok, so I have to tell you about this, because I think it is so ridiculous. The other day, Morgan was teaching a lesson to the kindergarten class. I was in the room, but not really paying much attention, since the lesson was in Chinese. One of the kids was misbehaving, and I saw Morgan walk over to her and grab a hold of her shoulder. At first I was not really paying attention, but I started to after I noticed him doing it several times to several different children and I could tell that he was applying a lot of force to the kids. Then I realized that what he was doing was grabbing a hold of the child’s shoulder and using his thumb to press on the pressure point in their shoulder cuff – which in turn made them sit up straight, and hurt them just enough to make a point, but not enough to make them scream or anything.
Really?? I have heard and seen some ridiculous things, but this one takes the cake. How would you feel if your child’s teacher or (even worse) the director was using pressure points as a form of physical discipline?
