We can't expel children any more. And I'm betting this was the last straw after several detentions.
What would you like the teacher to do then?
Why can't "we" expel children anymore? You can here in Indiana.
I guess you can expell children in my state, but the paperwork and procedure makes it almost impossible. The teacher would have to go through the equivalent of a small trial....and that's only if it's a normal kid. If a parent says ADHD the kid can't be expelled.
It's fucking weird to arrest kids, I get that. But as someone with a kid in school, I've seen how batshit crazy school has gotten.
If I had spit on a teacher growing up, I'd immediately have been expelled and thrown in juvie. Welcome to alternative education.
I believe the teachers. They're under paid and dealing with the craziest fucked up post COVID generation in history.
Where on Earth did you grow up that spitting on a teacher would have ended with you being thrown in juvenile detention? Can you provide any evidence of this?
Rural America.
Well that only narrows it down to something like 90% of the entire country.
I don't believe you. At all.
