What I don't see is the young man, as soon as he got the call, asking the teacher if he could be excused...his mom was calling from Iraq and could he take the call. Now, if he had, and the teacher refused and this escalated, then yes...I would say the teacher and administration reacted badly...but this young man is old enough to know he should have asked permission first.

Why the hell should the kid ask to be excused from lunch?

Read the story closer please. He went outside after receiving the call during his scheduled lunch break.

When was the last time you tried to find a teacher in the school cafeteria during lunch to ask permission to leave the building... while your mom in Iraq is on the phone?

That would be a ridiculous requirement.

Authoritarian Government Gods, may I please speak to mother who is in Iraq fighting for your fat, lazy, worthless government employee, tax sucking asses?
