[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another glaring problem here in terms of teachers being hesitant to act without permission from school administrators is fear of action by the Office of Civil Rights when the child is a young African American male. [/quote] I do think white teacher/black student played a part in this mess. [/quote] The mother said that her son actually really liked Abby Z in an interview. It sounded like the precipitating event for the phone smashing and her getting shot was telling him to sit down and not giving him attention. In one interview, the mother basically blamed Abby for instigating the phone smashing incident because she wasn't giving him enough attention. Definitely a complicated dynamic with the teacher.
