Kindergarten teacher was fired for interpreting the phrase "impaling" to children
Children's fairy tales are full of rigidity, and adult life is full of injustice. There is no need to go far for an example — in the Rostov region, a kindergarten teacher was fired, who explained to the children a little of the phrase "impaling". The teacher decided to enlighten the children not just like that, but by explaining an excerpt from P. Ershov's well-known fairy tale "The Hunchback Horse".
The teacher was dismissed with the serious wording "for mental abuse of children", and the court recognized the decision as legitimate. The high court found that on February 22, 2019, the pupils of the correctional group of Taganrog kindergarten No. 43 read the fairy tale "The Hunchback Horse" and during the reading, the kids had a purely technical question - how to put on a stake.
Actually , the children were interested in this passage:
The teacher satisfied the kids' curiosity by simply telling them that "A person was put on a stake, the stake passed through the person's body, and then the person died." She said and forgot, but the children did not forget. Some of them flashed erudition in front of their parents and the woman was accused of psychological abuse.
The case file states that the details of the execution disturbed the mental balance of one of the children and he began to suffer from mood swings, tantrums and obsessive fear of death. To top it all off, the child categorically refused to go to kindergarten.
The teacher was fired from her job, but she did not accept it and challenged her dismissal in court. At the meeting, she did not deny that she had told the children about the use of cola, but stressed that the fairy tale was included in the curriculum, and she acted with the best educational motives.
In addition, the dismissed woman reported that when the kindergarten management conducted an internal audit. The essence of this procedure is unclear to her, since no one interviewed the children. Therefore, the teacher is inclined to believe that she was fired because of the biased attitude of the administration.
The outcome of the proceedings in the Taganrog court was as follows: to recognize the decision on dismissal as legitimate. Later, the Rostov Regional Court recognized this decision as lawful. The judicial board came to the conclusion that the teacher violated the moral and moral norms in force in society and was unworthy to bear the high title of a teacher.
Truly, my tongue is my enemy. The woman was lucky that the children did not read up to the moment when the tsar was boiled alive in a cauldron. For reasoning about this execution, you could get a real criminal record.
