[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]School psychologist here. At the middle school I work at, the teachers do not touch students phones because they are liable if any damage to the phone. So they just tell the kid to put the phone away. The student either ignores them or puts it away for 2 minutes and then takes it back out and keeps doing what they were doing before. Teacher goes back to teaching the rest of the class (most of whom are on their phones too or looking at some website on the device that they are not supposed to.)

Also if I had a dollar for each fight/ bullying incident that I’ve seen being recorded by kids, I’d be rich.

After seeing all this go on for years I decided to put my kid in private school with strict cell phone rules. The students are required to leave their phones in their lockers all day. I also didn’t give my kid a phone until 8th grade. [/quote]

MCPS should put up camera's so parents can see what's going on.  [/quote]

At this point, I think MS teachers especially would welcome this. You'd get to see your demon spawn as they actually are. [/quote]

As a parent, I want to know if my kid is acting like a demon spawn...[/quote]
