What would you do about odd teacher?

She explained that the teacher cries almost every day in class and that she will often pick up a classroom object and threaten to hit students with it (not misbehaving students, just random students). Worse than what I was expecting.

I’m the teacher who said you are only hearing one side of the story. But now you provided more details and this is not okay. Contact a principal.

You didn’t give details at first and a hectic afternoon at home could just be them talking about how they are busy in the evenings and relating to kids. Students talk about they are stressed. Teachers talk about how they have second jobs, are busy with their kids, etc.

What you are describing is unprofessional and needs to be reported.
