Is anyone watching? Yes...always...

If a tree falls in the woods and there's no one there to hear it....

But today, with video cameras in cellphones and the ubiquitous publishing and social networking technology available, there will never be no one there to hear it.   In this story from e-Media Tidbits, a student in Singapore captured video of a teacher mistreating another student.  The story at ChannelNewsAsia  wrestles with the issues.  While some wrestle, I think the lesson is summed up nicely in this quote by the story's author:

I have always taught my children that they have to learn to judge whether their behaviour can stand up to scrutiny, whether by the parents or the public.
