We really need to teach students on the matters of love, to prevent the tragedies of love becoming murder here, from the Front Page Sections, translated…
After the incident of the female college student getting hacked, a lot of people started looking into how they’d reacted, attempted to try to find out where the seed for murder got planted, who wronged whom more. But, all of those “haunted mansions”, weren’t built overnight, they’re not naturally born or made that way either.
The education in Taiwan overtly focused on the elevating of the grade levels, from the elementary to the high school years, the health classes were “borrowed” by the examinations, that, was a common memory we all shared. We’d chewed on the texts of those age old poets, rote memorized their entire lives’ doings, and, highlighted the twists and turns in their lives, and, wrote down the notes; we’d spent more hours on the Pythagorian theorem, lost ourselves, in the labyrinths of numbers and symbols, hoping we’d gotten that correct answer.
But, is that what the students wanted, what they’d, needed?
The time for teaching how to handle that curiosity we’d developed toward the members of the opposite sex got borrowed away, but, all of the troubles that are related to this realm, didn’t just, go away. Like that line from Jurassic Park, “Life will find a way.”
If the schools don’t start treating the students as people who have feelings, if the families dodged the discussion on sex, if the society doesn’t provide us with the right knowledge on sex ed, the students normally find alternative ways to get the information. Some students would search online, and find out exactly, what SEX is all about, some would read the romantic comic strips, to learn about how to show someone that they loved them, while others may model after the soaps, to learn to establish relationships with someone. And, when the students didn’t get the right kinds of information, and mistook the scripts for what’s real, they wouldn’t know that a million text messages wouldn’t get you that teary-eyed hug when the two of you finally meet, or that when a female said NO, it actually meant no. So, the psychos continue to stalk, to show affection, and the party that was constantly rejected felt defeated, and the party that rejects kept feeling scared, being harassed constantly to the point of breaking.
A lawmaker ushered the amendment on “Preventive Measures Against Stalkers”, but, so what if the laws are passed? As we keep on making those highly educated, but low intelligent in human interactions psychos, the “haunted mansions”, the “stalkers”, after the amendments of the laws, it’ll only create more criminals who are way too naïve.
And so, setting up those laws to prevent stalkers are merely, treating the problems on the surfaces, but because the education here, is still too focused on the academia, that, is why there’s, this lacking in relating to each other in socialization for the younger generations of people now.
