A mother's love knows no bounds, it's an unstoppable force that guides and surrounds. From the moment we're born, our mothers' hearts are filled with dreams and wishes for our future, a love so pure and unconditional, it's beyond measure.
We all know the struggles of raising a child and teaching them right from wrong. But what happens when their behavior goes off the rails? For one mother, the answer is simple: she'll do whatever it takes!
In a bold and unexpected move, a Malaysian mother took matters into her own hands and brought her 7-year-old son to the police station for discipline. After receiving reports of her son causing chaos at school, she decided to take action and teach him a valuable lesson. While some may raise their eyebrows at this decision, it's important to remember that discipline is crucial for a child's development.
Aisyah Hamzah, a 42-year-old housewife, explained that this action was intended to teach her son a lesson and educate him not to repeat the same mistakes, despite multiple reprimands. “I don’t know any other way to make him realise. As a mother, I want the best for my child. I think this lesson is the best way for him to learn and not repeat his mistakes,” Aisyah told Sinar Harian.
‘That day it went too beyond our expectations'
Aisyah shared that she often advised her youngest child, Muhammad Ziqri, but her words were often ignored, even though Ziqri was an excellent student at school. Despite his academic success, his behaviour was a constant concern. Aisyah, who adopted Muhammad Ziqri when he was just eight days old, revealed that her son had a habit of disturbing other students and was frequently scolded by his teachers.
“His teacher often tells me that Ziqri likes to disturb other students, but it’s not that severe. However, that day it went too far because his friend fell and hit his forehead on the edge of the table. That’s why I took him to the police station to teach him a lesson,” she explained.
‘He no longer misbehaves or disturbs his classmates’
When asked about the feedback from the police, Aisyah mentioned that the entire situation was an act to scare her son straight. The police officers at the station were informed of the real situation and played along to help teach Ziqri a lesson. “I have told Ziqri many times to behave, otherwise I would take him to the police station. As soon as we arrived at the station, I told the officer to ‘arrest’ Ziqri, and they helped to make it happen,” Aisyah added.
Following the incident, Aisyah reported a significant change in Ziqri’s behaviour. He no longer misbehaves or disturbs his classmates. “Alhamdulillah, now he doesn’t disturb his friends anymore. Maybe he learned a lesson from what I did,” she said.
Also, Aisyah also offered advice to other parents, encouraging them to be patient when educating their children, especially those who are very active.
