Consequences of Penal Code Amendment Bill

This Bill is not simply about banning corporal punishment — it is about social engineering.
By stripping away parental and teacher authority, it manufactures a generation of children who are:
- Narcissistic Youth
- Conditioned to believe their feelings are supreme and unquestionable.
- Grow up entitled, arrogant, unable to take correction or responsibility.
- Unruly & Undisciplined Citizens
- With no fear of consequence, youth will break rules at home, in school, and later in society.
- Respect for elders, teachers, and traditions will collapse.
- Manipulable Pawns
- When children reject authority at home and school, they become highly vulnerable to outside authority — social media influencers, NGOs, extremist groups, foreign-funded campaigns.
- Youth without roots in discipline or culture are easily recruited for external agendas: street protests, anti-state activism, culture wars.
- A Society Turned Upside Down
- Parents and teachers powerless.
- Children with unearned power, no duties, no responsibilities.
- Elders silenced, while youth are weaponized as tools for those who wish to destabilize nations.
Big Picture Warning:
This Bill is not about child protection. It is about child exploitation — creating a narcissistic, unruly generation that can be turned against its own culture, parents, teachers, and country.
THE GOVT MUST IMMEDIATELY WITHDRAW THIS BILL – RUINING THE FUTURE OF THE FUTURE OF SRI LANKA IS MORE TREACHEROUS THAN ANY CRIME
