I swear, I don't see the big deal. Heck, the kid might even had thought it was funny "at the time" joking around.. then momma finds out about it and has the freakin' fit.. ?? who knows ? Both my boys have a very good sense of humor.. I guarantee something like this wouldn't find them coming home complaining about it.. but joking about it. I will say, this is all dependent on the "Delivery/context" etc.. which we all know nothing about. |

Now school shootings are my fault ?
Look.. I don't feel like discussing this much more, without any of us knowing the context of all this. If the kid was shy, or already had issues etc.. then I could see this being a problem.. But i've been coming at this, as "what if" this kid WAS the class clown.. and IF that WAS the case.. then he should be able to take a joke, or quit cuttin' up in class, and wasting everyone else's time. That's all I'm saying. But we don't know if he was the class clown etc.. it happens all the time.. student screams "Teacher called me a horses' ass!" turns out he was acting like an ass. I'm talking particulars.. and we don't have any yet in this story. |

"I was standing in the middle of (the two teachers), and they (were) reading them off," he said. "Everyone was laughing." Matt felt humiliated. "They (were) putting us down and everything," he said. "That is not what their job is for, to put kids down. They are supposed to teach us." Does it still sound like he thought it was funny? Quote:

However a child being an ass DOES NOT give the teacher the right to call him an ass in front of the entire classroom....and in that particular example, the use of profanity by a teacher in front of the student would indeed warrant some type of reprimand. You punish children for bad behavior, you reward them for good behavior, under no circumstance should you intentionally humiliate them. |

I know. Maybe he got kicked in the nuts. Maybe he said he was never going to have children. Maybe his class did the flour bag baby thing and he left his out in the rain. There are plenty of ways this could be the most non-offensive thing in the world. Without knowing anything else about this I can't say whether or not it's an over-reaction. I'm pretty sure this is an over-reaction to a "class clown" award. |

Just as when you got some kid walking around school with his pants hangin' around his knees.. I appreciate the teacher who will call them on that too.. public humiliation being a good starting point. So we'll just have to disagree on that one. |

As an adult, you should not hold a grudge then intentionally humiliate a 12 year old child. |

Public humiliation teaches kids that it's ok to bully others. If a kid has his pants "sagging," yank him aside and tell him to pull them up or 3 day's detention. There is no excuse for public humiliation of ANY student, be it at the hands of teachers or other students.
