Teens?
Cattle Prod or a Whip and a Chair
A few years back I had to break-up a girl fight at our church’s summer carnival. It was pretty serious. They were wailing on each other pretty good.

Hey! Man, you talkin’ back to me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey! Man, you disrespectin’ me?
Take him out
You gotta keep ‘em separated
Hey, they don’t pay no mind
If you’re under 18, you won’t be doing any time
Hey! Come out and play
Unions are far from perfect. We all know that. But this story shows where unions can be useful. Management people love to cover things up. They ignore serious problems. Sometimes the only people willing to tell the truth are the union people.
P.S. I spent decades teaching in urban schools. And you can be sure of one thing. For every teacher assault that makes the evening news, 100 will go unreported. (Not an exaggeration.)
“Teachers and para-professionals”
That the he!! is a “para-professional”? I see/hear this fairly often these days especially on our local news channel. Are they temp. teachers? Are they wanna-be security guards? Are they parachutists who drop in to assist during fights? Good Lord. What on earth is the education system and media doing?
Oh, and don’t get me started on the use of the word “teens” who it comes to these stories of ferals in the school systems. (Rant/off.)
I've known teachers - the mystery is easy to solve: the thugs are black... and the administrations are afraid of being called 'racists'.
Shame on the spineless administrators... they're NOT doing the kids, teachers or thugs any favors... by allowing this crap to go on...
Probably fighting over who got to turn in their homework first.
Nobody could have predicted this.
Diversity is our greatest strength.

Just slap shock collars on the kids when they enter the school. They throw a punch, they get zapped.
The headline almost sounds like it was one massive fight and 18 teachers were hurt trying to break it up. It’s still indicative of the times, though. 18 separate incidents equal a signal that order must be restored.
When I taught high school (30 yrs, BTW), I once broke up a fight in my classroom between two football players. They were otherwise good guys, they just had a football-practice-related grudge. Anyway, they were throwing desks at each other. It happened really fast; of course, I intervened and got my glasses broken. Afterward, they cooled down and apologized profusely to me and to the class. And they pitched in together to get me a new pair of glasses. Those were different times; I think it was in the early ‘90s.
“They claim 18 teachers have been seriously injured in school this year, mostly from breaking up school fights. Some of them had to be hospitalized.
And they said the district isn’t doing anything about the problem. “
You pretend to teach.
The kids pretend to learn.
The parents pretend to care.
The school board pretends there is no problem.
Kids need dicipline. Too bad that is considered “disrespectful”. These kids learn this behavior at home from their entitled parent(s).
I lived fairly close to da hood in FL. There was an intersection visible from our front yard and one of the roads lead to a school. At least once a week, a deputy would come flying up with lights and siren on, block the road with his car and jump out with shotgun in hand, stand there for half an hour and then leave. Half the time an ambulance would go by while he was there.
That intersection had a 4 way stop and speed limit was 55 in one direction. Once a month someone would run the stop sign coming from da hood. Heard a big bada boom and someone would either be going to the hospital or the morgue.
Glad to be out of there. Living in rural Ozarks now and haven’t heard a siren in well over a year.
My Teacher friends are not allowed to break up fights - they are required to get an administrator or find another teacher to witness before they touch a student. It does not matter how serious the flight is, the teachers are not allowed to touch a student in any way.
Back in my day, if we would have touched a teacher, dad would have whooped my behind into oblivion! These days, where is Dad? Out impregnating the next woman, I assume.
,,,,,, and I’ll bet Obama is happy as hell , he started this mess . Divide and conquer is working .
