Yes, I believe that the law enforcement are always targeting students and treating them harshly.

I think the setting of the book is great example of a time in which this was very true. It is not always so directly violent, but the effects and the degree are just as severe.

This makes me remember an adage that says, "when two elephants fight, the grasses remain the victim".
That's the case with students, especially in developing countries.
The government rarely care about their well-being or opinions.

Students are the receiving end of trickle down economics. Therefore times of insecurity and instability such as war are sure to affect them. Wild World has portrayed that unfortunate reality quite accurately with the massacre of those students.

I think it's a difficult world for students especially when the older generation fails to understand them .Students seem not to be understood or even given enough room to express their feelings thus creating a gap in the society.I think they should be part of the process to avoid riots.

This reminds me of the saying that when two elephants fight, the grass suffers. Students are always at the receiving end of whatever decision the government makes or fails to make. War, Strike, Scarcity, etc.

Yes, when a government did something radical it is the students that end up in the receiving end. But the opposite is also true, many country had histories that a regime was toppled by students movement

I agree with your points and perspective. It is true that students are mostly on the receiving end of the government actions, directly or indirectly. There is a level of brutality that students experience from the government.

I agree. Sadly, this is a real and extremely unfortunate occurrence in which students usually find themselves at the receiving end of some harsh government decisions.

This is highly common in underdevloped countries. It is sad that students are at the receiving end of government choices. Government choices affect that careers and plans as they experience delays.

I agree with you. Students or perhaps children are at the receiving end, whether during the time a decision was made or in the future, where the effects of that decision can be felt. Strike actions, kidnappings in school areas, and name any more, students are always affected.

you are so right! Governments used to do that, and sadly, in some countries, these things still happen. I heard these kinds of actions from direct witnesses, and they're never excusable. let's hope the world learns to do better
