[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know. As an elementary teacher, I can tell you that all kinds of things are said. We had a student claim a teacher choked him this year. The teacher did nothing of the sort and luckily there were 2 other teachers in the room at the time, but the teacher still had to go through the disciplinary process and was on leave for a week during the investigation. The teacher was humiliated, and the case was found to be completely unfounded- just a student trying to be "funny."

We have had other situations as well where there is an investigation, but it turns out that it was just a misunderstanding or miscommunication.

I am not doubting the 8-year-old, but as a teacher and a parent, I know how often things are misunderstood or something goes home and is blown WAY out of proportion. Again, this is not to say this is what happened here, but I have been around long enough to know that you need to wait for the investigation.

If this did happen, I hope appropriate education will happen.

I’m glad you’re so obviously not doubting the 8 year old. [/quote]
