Re "Nowadays the father would get into trouble for threatening behaviour. "
I think nowadays a teacher HITTING a child would get you into trouble TOO so don't worry about hanny08's dad. We need to keep on eye out for crack pot churchy types who think they alone have God on their side... not fathers who defend their daughters.

The bit about reading them right was the bit where they seemed to agree with what went on in their culture, rather than what they said went on in their culture. Since I do not have access to other Korean nationals at this time, I have no other way of verifying if this is general across South Korea, so have to rely on their testimony.
I did not forget about the teacher hitting the child bit, which is why I said I found it incredible, I was comparing what went on then with attitudes today. If it happened today, and physical punishment was inflicted by the teacher, the correct procedure would be to lodge a complaint with the police and the school authorities. If no physical assault had been done by the teacher, then lodge a complaint with the head teacher or the LEA.
Physically going to confront the teacher would, in today's climate would be counter productive and give the teacher the moral high ground, especially when there are other avenues.

all office-speak and weasel words ... you work in some goverenment beucracy....I'm sure of that.
"I have no other way of verifying if this is general across South Korea, so have to rely on their testimony."
WRONG you don't have to ... their "testimony" isn't their nation's. .... logically you don't " have to rely on their testimony" and in so doing tar them all with the same brush...infact you NEED to because it fits in with a racist idea that is already embedded in your head...an idea that you need to bolster with illogical assumptions.
Understand? So then don't stereotype a WHOLE NATION based on anecdotal evidence. That's THE worst evidence there is when talking about generalisations ... use some stats man! In fact I notice lots of you evidence is anecdotal..."a Muslim said this to me... a McDonalds cashier said that." This is a great way to build a very weak foundation for your arguments ... it's not LOGICAL!!.
It's why I keep accusing you of racism. Logically ... what ONE person of a race/nation/religion say or does ISN'T enough to make wild stereotypical judgements on all of them yet you seem to do it all the time. Logically it makes no sense so the only other thing that could be motivating you Sticks is "fear of the other"....you supposed to be a christian Sticks!!
for the n-th time "member a told ya!"
If your planning an defending yourself on this one please answer these directly and not with office-speak.
