Teacher loses her cool

[Rasputin_Vol]

It's interesting to read the comments on different websites regarding this story. Very few are neutral.

In other words, either those posting are nearly 100% defending the student and making comments about how the teacher should be fired ("she would be if she were black and the student were white"), or the teacher should be beaten as much or worse than how she slapped the student, and thus condoning more violence.

Or, they are mostly supporting the teacher with comments about how the student deserved it, the teacher should be recognized for having the nerve to address a disruptive student, the parents are the problem which is why the student shows no respect in the classroom, etc.

It seems somewhat human nature that in examples like this there is typically a "good/bad" or a "wrong/right" perspective, when in reality it would seem that in this case there is simply just "bad" and/or "wrong". The teacher was clearly out of line with her actions and words, and the student (based on comments in the video) was also being disruptive.

It would be nice if examples like this led to more agreement of generally bad behavior by both sides, instead of taking one side over the other.

Teacher should never do anything like that.....however, these kids parents should be blasted for the lack of "raisin" they are doing. It's pretty clear that they lack any guidance at home.

You couldn't pay me enough to be a teacher in today's world.

And this is why I went with Early Childhood Education. I'll take my classroom of 5 year olds over a class of teenagers every day.

I'm fascinated by the number of people on here supporting the teacher. She absolutely knows this is not cool but she's clearly done this enough to feel comfortable with it. Why do you think there is even video? I'm sure the kids knew she'd do it again. Her career should be over. No place for that behavior from the adult in the room.

More of today's kids should have some sense beaten into them, but instead we are concerned about making laws where men feel good about wanting to go into women's bathrooms.
