And, my above post #75 is in addition to the points you and I previously made:

Your very valid point, that fights happen quickly, as do the injuries. (So, are parents of the kid getting beat up supposed to be satisfied with a policy of whenever the principal shows up on the scene, the school acted quickly enough? Their kid may already need five stitches by then.)

And, my previous point, in my reply #1 - A teacher must also assess the potential risk and injury to the teacher, if the teacher wants to spare a kid getting beat up from getting five stitches.

In short, this article raises a lot of issues -- none of which are addressed by any of the parties mentioned in the article.
