"Didn’t realise this at first but school counsellorsl can be part of the problem. Pc primary school’s one seems to be overly sensitive and reacts like a strawberry, say unprofessional things to students like ‘it is not your fault cos you have family problems’ ( And the child was thinking ‘Huh? I didnt know I have family problems. But I must have cos she says I have. So it is not my fault I do wrong things.’) Let’s blame others first and take no responsibility for self.
She does not seem to be able to properly counsel students to take responsibility for their bad actions and change bad behaviours like grossly vulgar sexual language, insulting others, disrespectfulness and social media & screen overuse. But blames the parents instead when it is obvious where the child mostly learned these from the class/school groupchats and social media. Child became even worse with counselling.
Imo, counsellor may be hastily judgmental, subjective because of her own broken family background and try to hide behind other teachers when parents complain.
If your child has a problem, my advice is to turn to external professional counselling. Imo, don’t use the school counsellor cos otherwise really regret."
