    We can’t expel children any more. And I’m betting this was the last straw after several detentions.

    What would you like the teacher to do then?

        I guess you can expell children in my state, but the paperwork and procedure makes it almost impossible. The teacher would have to go through the equivalent of a small trial…and that’s only if it’s a normal kid. If a parent says ADHD the kid can’t be expelled.

        It’s fucking weird to arrest kids, I get that. But as someone with a kid in school, I’ve seen how batshit crazy school has gotten.

        If I had spit on a teacher growing up, I’d immediately have been expelled and thrown in juvie. Welcome to alternative education.

        I believe the teachers. They’re under paid and dealing with the craziest fucked up post COVID generation in history.

          Where on Earth did you grow up that spitting on a teacher would have ended with you being thrown in juvenile detention? Can you provide any evidence of this?
