Might not be a bad idea, actually, at least dealing with teenagers.
I always thought that a teachers qualification is measured upon his pedagogic ability and subject knowledge - and not his physical and martial arts skills.
Or they could try something like "Not taking a kid's personal property"
I only respond in regards to the headline - and if e.g. a school does not permit Mobil Phones in class - then it has to be surrendered to a teacher requesting it
Actually, 50% of new teachers quit in five years... not everyone is cut out for it.
In my days it was somewhere near 0%
They actually think kids WANT to be locked in a building for six hours a day
So open-air schools and students relaxing in hammocks would be your solution?
listening to boring lessons about things they don't care about.
That is not really a teachers responsibility - but for those setting the curriculum's and education standards.
My family and me too.
I'm glad I live in a country with civil and human rights.
My family and me too. especially due to living in countries like Malaysia/China, where the rights and human rights of students and teachers are protected and assured via laws.
Well, no, we don't have enough mental health services in this country as it is. That's another topic.
No need, a slap in time is worth far more, then three pharmaceutical tablets a day and being subjected to psychologists who themselves in majority are deranged persons.
Again, since we have no context about this confrontation, we don't know what caused it, other than the teacher took his phone and wouldn't give it back.
Doesn't change the fact - that a teenage punk assaulted an adult.
Since you are always so concerned about human/personal rights - if I take away your baseball cap from your head, or scratch your car all the way from back to front, do you have a legal right to punch me? Imagine you might break my nose or my doctor will certify that I lately suffer from headaches and disorientation.
I might just be a pitiable person with a bad childhood and thus reoccurring mental lapses (you know, it's all my parents and society's fault) - I belief that according to law - you can only try to hold me and yell for help or the police. If you hit me my lawyer will sue your ass - especially in the USA. And every deplorable punk kid living in a Western society knows that.
I know there were a few teachers in my Catholic High School I would have loved to knock the **** out.
Mate, I went to a Catholic Irish Brotherhood School in Singapore for 10 years - and that school had some real bad student buggers (including myself) If we hit a teacher (actually happened once or twice in those 10 years) - our Headmaster Brother McNelly would have given you a public caning in front of the entire school being assembled. And he would not have expelled you, but made sure that you would be parading your sore ass around - and become a laughing stock for the next couple of weeks. Public caning happened around once a month due to certain offenses, and even the toughest buggers went crying. Therefore WE all knew as to where the limits towards tolerance where set.
Our school had around 1400 students - of which approximately 35 were Europeans/Westerners - mostly Brits and Aussies - I German (me) and 1 American. (good friend of mine)
Now guess, who was the only Westerner that got a public caning? right you are, the American - kind off telling isn't it?
And yes we played a lot of pranks towards certain teachers. - but punching a teacher? only some lowly asocial piece of shit would have done that. One off those I remember, didn't know who his father was, and mum was a drunkard and junky entertain lots of men. So according to you and other leftist/libs - society needs to adapt towards the standards of those asocial piece of shits?
