According to the article, the kid was known to be a problem. The parents are claiming he couldn’t do something like that, but admit that he is on medication to control it.
Forget the teacher’s ego, this kid is a disaster waiting to happen. He should be kicked out of school for assaulting a teacher (actually two of them, according to the article).
When someone thinks it is serious enough to call the cops (although the cops did nothing), its time to deal with the problem, decisively.
Somebody thinks the brat spawn is cute for acting that that way, look at the picture they chose to publish of him. Don’t know if family or media is to blame but at least one of them is. That is ridiculous-awww look at the cute little little future gangbanger.
