[quote=Anonymous]The full story, from what I've heard, is the teacher was upset because the student had called him 'buddy' trying to belittle the adult as if he were talking to a fellow classmate. Apparently, the teacher told the student that "Someone will get you for the way you talk to people" To which the student replied "Who? You?" In an attempt to push the teachers' buttons. Then the two began insulting each other. As the student got up with his backpack and started heading towards the door as seen in the video, the teacher made a comment about him 'running away'. Then the student (Who has an I.E.P, and reportedly has A.D.H.D, O.D.D & Bipolar disorder) Grabs the computer, (Which breaking things is a common in children & teens who suffer from chemical imbalances in areas of the brain, where trying to control impulsive behavior is difficult) The student was not in the right. But neither was the teacher. From the information that I have, the teacher works/worked with children with I.E.P.'s, he's gone through training for de-escalating situations just like this. I've worked with many children that suffer from mental illnesses, troubled teens, and adults.
