LOL, anyone who works with kids...understands this completely.

when I was younger I used to go to a catholic school and I used to make this pretty red-headed teacher cry nearly everyday, just because I could (I still remember her name too). I know I was a disruptive little terror (mfer) and the only thing that got my much-needed attention was being removed and put in with a stricter class with a much "meaner" nun. She'd justly call the academically irreverent up to the front of the room for a little but effective (humiliating) tap on the knuckles with a wooden rule...that 'public' humiliation served me very well. I definitely wasn't proud of it and didn't want my parents to find out... (I wasn't that much of an insolent bassturd =P hehe)
but who is it that says kids can't be negatively psychotic and abusive? they're phukn deluded. it doesn't help to enable kids to be assholes in school. maybe this kid deserved it. it's certainly a possibility with more than a few kids today. and I think we can all assume he/she certainly "survived" it as a few others have as well. so WTF. teachers generally aren't sadistic, they're generally respectable people with a freakn hard job to do. are we really content to put our teachers in straight-jackets still expecting them to do their jobs, increasing their frustration and all for bogus over-reaching bleeding reactionary children's "rights" bs which may certainly serve to be little more than enabling some potentially to be as abusive or screwed up as they frivolously wanna be??? (i know there's some idiot out there who'll choose to put his head between his cheeks about it, but screw 'em...it doesn't change the truth of it)
I think we should give teachers more credit, money, and respect for the valuable jobs they have to carry out... They have a helluva job if my own younger experience serves as any testament =)
thanks for the post!
