Summary  What are the implications of the recent series of incidents involving students who lost their temper and became annoyed? What problems have these incidents raised? How should we respond to these incidents, and how should we deal with children’s problems, especially those of adolescents, in the future? This survey was conducted to explore guidelines for this purpose. In addition to this questionnaire survey for schools, an interview survey was also conducted.
