I actually side with the teacher in this one... too many worthless punks go on doing whatever they want because no one does anything about it, and unfortunately, they are dumb enough that beating them really is the only solution
 
wrong. he was put in his place by physical assault. so next time he wants to put someone in their place, he'll physically assault them.

that's how it works any everyone who's educated knows this.
I disagree. You have no idea how these kids work. Whether you beat them down or not, they are still physically abusive. I've seen it. It's what I meant when I said they usually deserve it.

so how do you propose you show someone that physical assault is wrong?

if you put them in their place (physically), then that reinforces the use of physical force.

if you just yell at them, then they see there is no real consequence to them using physical force, and continue to do so.

someone else posted how to use physical punishment properly only as a last resort after repeated escalation of privilege removal.

i am not an expert but some other possibilities might include removing the child from the other children or removing play time privileges or some other method i'm sure the gym teacher could find out from other teachers or administrators.
 
That was a pretty tame ass whoopin' , barely smacked the kid. Most definitly not the correct way to handle this..
 
that was over the top for any adult much less a teacher. she totally lost her cool and reacted like a 13 year old ass. i hope it was worth it to her while she sits in jail cell and never being able to teach again.
 
"the child's mother has filed charges with the Sheriff's Office."

Of course she did. Her poor baby would NEVER do anything to deserve something like that...

because their parents beat them at home because their parents beat them, etc.

trust me, i know how these kids work. i've worked with them before and i've gone through extensive training.

Why does it have to be one size fits all? I can easily see 2 kids reacting differently to a beating..

because that's how it works... it's a one size fits all thing. just like 2+2=4 is a one size fits all thing. the same thing happens to animals... if you beat a dog, more than likely, it will be aggressive. maybe not to the person beating it, but to other smaller dogs or humans that threaten it. the same thing happens with humans.

besides, i don't know of a single study that has been done that shows that physical punishment of children is an effective method in teaching proper behavior. every study i've seen on the subject, long-term and short-term, strongly show that physical punishment is the worst way of teaching proper behavior.
 
Wait...was that the teacher? In the studded belt? And wearing the long sleeve shirts under short sleeve shirts under long sleeve shirts?

Well, I have personally been beaten by my parents as a kid growing up and I have never beaten another human being in my whole life, even as a kid.

Maybe what you're saying is true for many or even most people, but it's certainly not everyone.

If you think one size fits all then you still need more training.

Yep, same for me. Spanked pretty good and beaten with the belt (when I was really bad). I never once beat down someone unless they threw the first punch at me.
 
Good for the teacher. However, you need to make it HURT. Make the kid cry and weep. Then when you're done, send him to a corner and order no one to talk to the child for the rest of the day. Then, you will be setting an example and no one dare cross you.
 
actually, i'd put money that the kid will be a more fierce bully when outside that classroom. the teacher just reinforced the notion that violence is how you deal with situations you don't like.

this is funny.....violence is the answer. Haven't you read a history book or watched the world news?
 
this isnt scared straight
jesus
of course a 13 yo is gonna be punk
but tbh i thought the teacher was another student bullying the smaller one and the teacher was going 2 intervene..
im all for restraining when neccesary, and teacher have the right to defend themselves..
but this was her all ghetto on the offensive
she be fired if i was the super already
