(7,694 posts)and while I do not defend the cop.....I have felt doing what he did myself many times....to begin with the student did not do what was asked of her by her teacher....you have to be in the classroom every day to see what teachers put up with....if I had done to teachers and misbehaved the way kids do today..I would have been expelled from school....kids today have no respect for teachers....kids are foul-mouthed, arrogant, abusive verbally, pay no attention to rules...and they know they can get way with it....What with laws as they are today schools are afraid to look side-wise at a kid for fear they will be sued...so kids get away with behavior that is disgusting and abusive...I am near retirement so I will hang in there...but schools have lost thousands of quality-teachers because teachers who thought teaching would be there life-time career are leaving teaching because they no longer wish to teach in insane asylums...many teachers leave school in tears many days, they get no support from administration...so why stay in an abusive atmosphere...
so many parents and people who have never taught in their lifetime......are so quick to judge teachers..how about spending a month in a classroom and then tell me how easy teachers have it in today's schools..
