[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why the F are you blaming teachers!!!! Do you think we want a kid in our class to threaten to kill us? Or a kid who hits, bites, or spits on us? Do you think we want a kid who is destroying the classroom we use our own money to decorate. Do you really believe we want a kid who is making all the other kids in the class suffer? There is NOTHING we can do.

Blame administrators- principals, special Ed. Directors, and board members who no longer allow kids to be suspended or disciplined. Or block kids from going to special Ed placements. Teachers send kids to the office and they are sent right back to our class often with a treat. We are told to “build a relationship” with the kid who is threatening to kill us or cussing us out or attacking us. [/quote]

I am a university professor and department head, and I’ve been spat at, cursed at, had things thrown at me, and more this year by a couple of students. There are so many layers of bureaucracy. Everything I do to try and get rid of these students results in legal jumping down my throat, or non-faculty administrators (who have never taught) worrying about optics/legal/process. It is a crisis for these students, a crisis for our society, and a crisis for education. Ugh. [/quote]

I find this hard to believe you are a university professor who has been spat at and had things thrown at you and campus police or security didn't responds. You might have the student 3-5 hours a week, now picture having the student 30 hours a week. Tell your professor in your college of Education to stop supporting inclusion at all costs, restorative justice for all offenses, rallying against suspensions, etc. [/quote]

It is true. Campus police said that if the spit had hit me, it’d be battery and they could do something. But since I dodged the spit, I am the only one who has gotten in trouble - for telling the student to get out and home. It is unbelievable. [/quote]
