[quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher and this is highly dependent on the teacher and the openness of the principal to deal with minor matters. I worked at a high-poverty school where there were a lot of kids going through a lot and we would only refer serious disciplinary cases to the principal. The teachers were trained and equipped to handle stress things like crying, work refusal, disrespect, defiance and other issues that sometimes came with home life stress. An example of something we would escalate would be repeated hitting that was hard hitting, not kids unable to keep their hands to themselves. I got married and moved and my new job happens to be in a richer neighborhood and am surprised some teachers send kids to the principal for little things, even things that happen only once. I know they have sent kids in for talking back or throwing away work into the trash can because they are frustrated. My personal feeling is that they are lazy. [/quote]
