Problems with teachers?

well there was a time when i had a conflict in between my father and my general science teacher that because of me. it happend like a way that i did a small mistake and then i cut it ant had written it as next word as that time i was not having erase.that time was when i was in 8th std.so my teacher got angry and he hit me on my back hard enough that in night i pain there. so on asking i told everything to my parents and next morning my father reache d to my school with my note book and asked to principle to ask the teacher to apologise to me.however i found weired for the situation. then the principal resolved the situation.since it happened long back so i dont correctly remember wat happened next.

Sounds like they are strict. Strict is not good but neither is no rules or few rules.

I think unfortunately some teachers and principals get a little power drunk and treat their students very heavy handed, maybe they think they have to be to keep control...a mind thing maybe, but I also think they just like the power. I always thought most teachers were heavy handed and unfair.

i am a teacher now but even i experienced some uncalled for punishments in my university provided by some power tripping professors. i was once punished to carry a chair on my shoulders in the middle of our field under the sun for an hour just because of my negative opinion on a Shakespeare play which my prof likes too much. of course that was too rough a punishment since it was a literature class and everyone is entitled to their own opinion. moreover it was very humiliating experience for me though i got the sympathy of most students in our school and some kind professors. anyway i still think that though there are some teachers who are the rotten tomatoes in education field, i believe that they are still outnumbered by those whose aim is to educate people especially the youth.just charge it to experience if you'll again encounter another teacher like that. or if needed you could report them to higher departments like department of education or division superintendent.
