11-Year-Old Girl's Response To Teacher’s Punishment Is Going Viral

ADVERTISEMENT

Meet Ava Morrison-Bell, the 11-year-old from the UK who has got some serious character – in a good way.

When asked at school what her teacher could do better, Ava courageously answered that collective punishment shouldn’t be used as it is not fair for the people who didn’t do anything. But that’s not all… She then backed up her statement with historical evidence, stating “under the 1949 Geneva Conventions it is a war crime”. Not too shabby for an 11-year-old, huh? Her dad tweeted a picture of Ava’s little note and it has gone viral since with over 380k likes and 116k retweets. Keep on scrolling to check it out!

When these teachers asked for feedback on what they could do better, they didn’t expect to get such a response from an 11-year-old

The girl’s dad was also surprised, so he shared her daughter’s note on Twittter

i would see no reason to ground her whatsoever, as written above, she was asked for a feedback and she delivered. polite, smart and honest - nothing you should ever punish as a parent! good work.

Right, but if you think like that, then you'll never have an excuse to brag to the whole internet about how smart your daughter is!

If you don't want the brutally honest feedback, don't ask for it. Hope the teacher listened.
