Teaching seems like a frustrating job
-
All the problematic peers I’ve known either were born into a neglectful or hostile household, or were neurodivergent of some kind and didn’t fit in with the environment we were in, since those who were typical and were born into understanding families would just do what they were supposed to do.
Due to how schools where I live are supposed to be looking out for signs of neurodivergence or other differences, while also being underfunded without a justification, many students aren’t even seen and once they get to middle or high school, they become the violent and problematic ones.
Then again though, it’s also the parents’ responsibility to make sure their own child is heard and cared for to prevent such outbursts from happening in the first place, and those neglectful or hostile households are likely a result of the parents not understanding what being mentally healthy means.

This is why I love private boarding schools. Punishments are swift & violent. And crying for attention will get you none.
Ah yes. Love the downvotes

the parent got told that his kid assaulted a teacher and this is the response, raving about some "calming bananas". Also not a word of apology.
-
"Ah yes, the ancient cure for physical assault: potassium. I’m sure the glasses will magically fix themselves once he finishes his 'Superpower' fruit.

isn't there vicarious liability for parents of their kids when the runts exhibit continuous violent behavior?
Absolutely not. I know multiple teachers and I've never once seen a parent held accountable for their child's behavior.
"Worst" a school can do is suspend them and the parents bitch about that and threaten to sue.

From a kid nicknamed "Cartman"..?
Oh... no reason.
-
In a situation like this is it better to punch the kid or the parents?
Hey! This is the internet, someone will suggest to play safe, take a swing at all three.
I know I sound old, but I miss the days when I (or even my kids) went to school. If a teacher reached out to parents you knew troubles where waiting at home. Not like being beaten senseless, but a punishment was lurking in your near future which would match your wrong doing.

I feel like the teacher should be someone who not only possesses great knowledge and the capacity to guide, but also the ability to solo the entire classroom in a fight to make them submit and listen the fuck up.

By the fact there is no salutation and no signature, and the text clearly doesn't stand by itself as a complete reply to anything, I'm going to assume it's a short excerpt from the email reply, and that there was an apology.

Seriously tho. I've worked as a teacher. The indoctrination system is pure garbage.

It's almost like kids don't like being physically coerced into a prison for their whole day.
-
that kid does not have good home
Sounds like the school can't control the kids. More control needed. \s

The more serious students will be armed. You're better off fleeing out a window.

If you need a calming banana to not punch people not mistreating you in the face you are a garbage person
not mistreating you
You think this kid chose to be in school? It's violent coercion from the start.
-
It's a child, calm down lol
This is how children are treated. They're completely controlled, disempowered, and then hated. It's completely normalized.
-
Nah, even as a child that's unacceptable. My kid is only 5 and I don't let them hit people, and punish them when they do. The response from the parent shows the apple fell straight down
Edit: if you think this is advocating violence against children, go touch grass or read a single book on parenting ffs. Natural/logical consequences make good punishments for misbehavior, and have gone a long way to helping my kid not act out (and are nonviolent, since that has to be spelled out)
only 5... punish them
Sounds real normal and healthy. jfc. Who upvotes this trash?
-
Punishing is much more than violence against children, and hitting them is one of the worst ways to punish for many reasons.
But it'll get you upvotes on Lemmy apparently.
