Children are taught discipline from a young age, but in some schools, the boundaries are pushed too far. A shocking incident has surfaced in northern China where a student was punished for going to the toilet at night.
**School Punishes Student for Late Night Toilet Visit**
At Yuandong Secondary School in Shanxi Province, a student was caught going to the toilet at 11 PM and was subsequently punished by the school. The punishment involved writing an apology letter and distributing 1,000 photocopies of it to other students. Additionally, five marks were deducted from the student's discipline score.
**'I Made a Mistake, I Won't Do It Again'**
In the apology letter, the student admitted to violating school rules, which disturbed the sleep of other students and brought shame to his class.
