There are schools that are so horrific, abusive, and socially toxic that it would be better for a student
never to step foot in them. Some schools are that horrible. This is true even if the child
never received any education whatsoever.
I seriously mean this! It would be better for a child to be illiterate and innumerate than ever to be subjected to that enviroment!
The school in this article is one of them.

Definitely “Another Reason to Homeschool!”
Is this the wonderful “socialization” that homeschoolers are missing?

When an animal attacks you, STK. Then go and hunt down the animal’s parents and ensure they can never breed again. This would be true Darwinism.
This country is lost. Only drastic action will save us.

Obviously, there must be good kids in this school. Why aren’t we rescuing the decent kids?
If legislators will not act, if they are dominated by the NEA, then why aren’t we acting privately to rescue the good kids?
One thing is for certain.
Churches are NOT going to step forward to rescue these kids. There are too many NEA teachers, and people directly and indirectly sucking a living from the government school industrial complex for any minister to act. Few ministers will bite the hand that puts money in the collection plate.

My homeschooled nieces are LIGHT YEARS ahead of their peers in academics, life skills, and most of all, socialization. They haven’t missed a thing they shouldn’t miss.

Suspension? SUSPENSION? Are you crazy? This is assault and battery. It’s jail time and expulsion, Dearie!

You obviously have no understanding of how these schools work. There will be a board of inquiry, the teacher will be brought up on charges, and will have to spend many, many hours and dollars defending herself. To top it off, she will most likely be harassed by the girl’s parents for abusing their daughter.
Similar things have happened to my sister who teaches in a school system outside Wash DC (never this bad, but close).

I saw the teacher interviewed and the taped incident on the Today show this morning. I was completely perplexed after that segment during which I heard “suspension”. “school administration” and “teacher’s union” mentioned but what I was really interested in, was never mentioned. I didn't hear a word about the police, district attorney, juvenile detention, prosecution or anything else that one would expect in an assault case. WTF is going on there?

You really need 'em?
The only mugshot I'm interested in is one taken by the coroner after the perp is dispatched like the rabid animal it is.
I don't give a damn about age, if one is attacked by a mad dog, kill the freakin' dog.
Tell the owners (parents) they should have been more responsible in raising and 'training' their dog.

As I have said before: CLOSE all government schools and let private industry have schools that are competitive. Provide funding to families who cannot afford the school fees and stop steeling money from citizens to pay for this radical so called school system.

Why did I know the Teacher was Black and I’ll bet the Attacker was as well. Sorry, but those are the Politically Incorrect and Politically Inconvenient facts about what is happening in our schools and many other parts of our Society today.

No reason for a child to be illiterate. They can be taught at home. Amazing how we behaved in school and had respect for the teachers and today they challenge a position of authority like this. Where are the parents? To me...if you are raised properly and taught the right and wrong of things and are taught to be respectful to others you wouldn’t even THINK of behaving in this manner. The schools talk about putting more and more and more $$$ into the schools. For what?
Go to class, sit your butt down in your desk, pay attention, learn and then move onto the next class. What is so hard about that? Sad state of affairs we live in now in this country. So many parents have failed their children. This kind of teaching and learning about right and wrong begins early in the home. It HAS to...otherwise we see what happens. If a child is not taught these values before he/she steps those little feet out the door to kindergarten...he/she will never learn them. Chaos. Pure chaos. However, as far as the teacher goes...I would sue the living hell out of the kids parents. The teacher does not have to be subject to that kind of mad behaviors. No way. No how.

Hah! She will apply at Human Resourses and make that her career--that and having brats to raise up in her image on our dime.
