The boy, around four years old, looked upset and crying in the video shared by a primary school teacher, who called it a "struggle" that teachers go through every day. The teacher, Sonam Jangmu, was seen chasing the boy, pleading with him to come back to the class, but the child was adamant and even sat down on the road in protest.

The video shows that managing a classroom of energetic and curious kindergarteners can be overwhelming. Working with children can be physically demanding, requiring teachers to be energetic, patient and flexible. They often do not want to go to school, with teachers opting for various ways to persuade them to come to school daily.
At such a young age, children may struggle with emotional regulation, separation anxiety or social skills. Teachers need to provide emotional support and guidance while maintaining a positive classroom environment.
