A former Kinderland preschool teacher at the time admitted to abusing four children under her care on Wednesday ( Mar 5 ) in Singapore.
The prosecutor was informed of Lin Min, 35, who allegedly forced two of them to consume fluids and dealt with them aggressively when they refused.
Parents of these two toddlers noticed that their children had nightmares in which they would say “no” or “bye bye lao shi (teacher )”.  ,
After the incidents ‘ videos were made available online, the circumstance became the subject of 2023’s information. After that, a few situations involving another teachers from the same school network started to occur.  ,
Lin has since been suspended from the institution and prohibited from working in the daycare industry.
Three other crimes of similar character were brought up when she admitted guilt on three counts of ill-treating a baby. The four kids in question ranged in age from one to three.
Due to a court-imposed joke purchase protecting their names, the patients cannot be identified.  ,
In June 2023, Lin allegedly forced one victim, a lady who was nearly two years older, to lay down and pour water into her mouth.
Her steps were videoed by a different instructor.  ,
Lin noticed that the child had stopped drinking water. Lin leaned the jug toward the girl’s face in an effort to give her water, but she turned the girl away.  ,
Lin therefore grabbed her around the mouth and demanded that she consume her water.  ,
As Lin raised her voice, the woman cried. The girl was gradually pushed until she lay on the floor by Lin. Lin finally pushed the woman’s lips shut before pouring liquid into it. The child may be snorting water while she was choking.
Before the school made the announcement, the kid’s parents were untrained in what transpired. They observed the victim saying “no” and “bye bye lao shi (teacher ), which would indicate that she desired the teacher to leave.  ,
An unhappy Lin also made an attempt to get a child, who was then two years old, to drink fluids in June 2023.  ,
The boy regularly screamed and struggled to get up despite being manhandled by her to lie on the floor.  ,
Lin grabbed the boy’s face and held his head backwards as he brought the water bottle near to his lips to give him water on another event in the same month.  ,
The school provided additional information about the victimization, but the boy’s parents were unaware of it.  ,
Eventually, they afterward reported to the police that they had observed that their child did not like neighbors touching him around his head and back during examinations.  ,
He may experience nightmares where he would declare,” no no, I don’t like.”  ,
Lin persisted, even though Deputy Public Prosecutor Jotham Tay claimed there was an obvious ingredient of violence in his actions because the children had been distressed.  ,
Mr. Tay disagreed with the defense, who called the situation an “overzealous worry.”  ,
It was obvious that Lin, at times, was not at all concerned with the well-being of kids, he said.
Additionally, according to Mr. Tay, it had been challenging for children to report quite happenings because their parents had not been made aware of them until they had been made aware of them.  ,
Kalidass Murugaiyan, Lin’s attorney, set Lin’s case apart from earlier court cases in which defendants had acted intentionally. Lin had not been acting out of hatred or cruelty, he claimed.  ,
His buyer, a professor in the care industry, was aware of the dangers of thirst in young kids, according to Mr. Kalidass.  ,
She misjudged, she made the wrong choice, and she will be paying a lot for it. We simply recommend that the rate not be too high, according to Mr. Kalidass.
To take into account the facts in this case, District Judge John Ng adjourned sentencing until Mar 13.  ,
Lin may be imprisoned for up to eight years and/or subject to fines of up to S$ 8, 000 ( US$ 6, 000 ) for abusing a child.  ,
