Discipline

Having no discipline in a school makes a school no different from the streets outside. Therefore, disciplinary problems are a problem that should be handled immediately and professionally  from its core so that it can be overcome easily. 

A student's discipline should be heavily guarded by the teachers in school. After all, half of a student's day on a weekday is spent studying in classes. Thus, teachers should apply the saying, a teacher's job is to encourage as well as educate, inform as well as inspire. A teacher's role is crucial in guiding a student towards their goals in life. A teacher should nudge a student back to the correct path in life should they realize that the student is slowly going the wrong way. However, nudging can only be used if the student has not strayed too far from life's path. Once it is too late, forcibly pushing them against their will to return to that path would become too hard of a task to execute.

Parents play a huge role in their child's discipline as well. A sense of security and safety from home can largely affect a student's decision to rebel, because with a background that has been paved so perfectly, who would want to be involved in an action that would ruin their lives? A parent should strive to provide not just a house for their children, but a home, a household that will allow them to raise their kids with ease and discipline. 

All in all, parents and teachers have to work hand-in-hand to guide a student in their early lives, when they are still malleable to changes. Once a child has become an adult, and is able to think maturely for himself or herself, then, and only then, the parents can let go of the reins to let them fend for themselves.
