[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because assaults are not really happening IRL.[/quote]

Teacher here. I see assaults happening at least 1-2 days a week in my school. It has gotten worse since I started 10 years ago. This year has been pretty awful.[/quote]

Can you at least share your district?[/quote]

Baltimore City. Fights happen at school all over the country every day. The admin deals with the students involved. As far as being a required reporter, that is for child abuse and neglect. Thankfully, I teach younger kids so I have to deal with this type of behavior a lot less than the teachers in grades 4-5. [/quote]

Parents want to believe that assaults are only happening in the city, but it most certainly is not.  Maybe not everyday, but it is happening where you would never expect.  The parents do not want little Johnny brought into juvenile court, even if it would be the best thing for him, long term.  Those parents think their kid's ill behavior is a reflection on them, and it is. [/quote]
