A middle school teacher is recovering in hospital in New York after being viciously assaulted by one of her student's mothers and the woman's 14-year-old niece. The incident occurred Wednesday afternoon at Alverta B. Gray Schultz Middle School in Hempstead. Police say the parent, Annika McKenzie, 34, walked into the building without being cleared by security and waited in the hallway for her daughter's math teacher, Catherine Engelhardt. McKenzie believed Engelhardt had 'put her hands' on her 12-year-old daughter earlier in the day, according to ABC 7.

Last name McKenzie - I was expecting Swedish-Irish.
She is a sturdy lass, but doesn't look Swedish or Irish. Purely for educational purposes, this is what I expect from Swedish women:
And from Irish:
If enough teachers sue the school for this type of thing, the school will have to finally act.
But I suspect the government will figure out a way to become “sue-proof”. The only tort reform we will get is to protect the government.
Back then I did ... because I had to have a different attitude in those days. Everyday I didn’t know whether I would be making it to the end of the school day - dead or alive - or getting shot or stabbed on the way home.
I made it through the school year although others did not. I was confronted several times, but was never touched. I had friends get pounded to a pulp right next to me, for looking at someone the wrong way, but I never did. I took a pretty light attitude about it and went on my way ... :-) ...
And, although some would consider that kind of situation to be traumatic and/or even oppressive ... I didn’t and it had absolutely no effect on me, most likely because it just washed off my back like water on a duck and I could laugh about it!
I had absolutely no responsibility for it, I was not required to do anything about it, and I didn’t report any of it, and I just went on my way just fine.
Nowadays, I’m not “in school” but take a kid “to school” ... and I would be all over someone if anything like that happened at the school where I take someone.
But, yes, I laughed! And I did just fine ... :-) ...
A problem even in my daughter’s midwest Catholic high school. It is because both parents and school administrators lack the courage to enforce the rules and apply the consequences written in their own handbooks.
Female school teacher, probably a liberal, who derives her sense of righteousness from “caring about the less fortunate”.
Sorry, that’s just another filthy rag unless you are covered with the true righteousness of Christ’s sacrifice.
parents and school administrators lack the courage to enforce the rules and apply the consequences written in their own handbooks
Probably lacking in courage only against those of the mascot classes.
Unfortunately, the kids are not THREATENED enough, to make them afraid, and the “rod” (mentioned in the Bible) is not taken to them!
Proverbs 13:24
24 He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him promptly.

Proverbs 23:13-14
13 Do not withhold correction from a child, For if you beat him with a rod, he will not die.
14 You shall beat him with a rod, And deliver his soul from hell.
Don't worry. Once the internet is completely locked down, you won't have to read about this stuff there, either.
I couldn’t help but notice that she made sure her hair was done and was able to get to school in the middle of the day. I’d also be willing to bet that she could never make the parent teacher conferences.
indeed that is the case
The media is our FIRST enemy.
Liberal politicians and socialists are our SECOND.
I would SO hit that. I would hit it until she was in the fetal position, under the table, naked and shivering in terror. I would hit it until she relieved herself involuntarily, covered in a sheen of her own sweat and lying in a puddle of her own sick, her fists pressed into her open mouth as she screamed a silent scream of sheer horror.
I remain in awe of your greatness.
If society imposes different rules on different people based on any differentiating factor,
it is incentivizing these groups to live separately in segregated communities.
No one should have to live side by side with people who abuse you
and not have the authority protect the abused.
A bully can be white, black, asian, rich, poor, gay, or straight. This woman is a bully, and such people have been around forever. Political correctness has neutered people’s ability to defend themselves from the bully. In schools children are trapped and unable to leave the situations they find themselves in and frequently are not protected by authority figures.
What is the solution? Remove your kid from the school. If you are a teacher with an administration that won’t defend you from bullying kids or parents... quit. Teaching in a school where your safety is threatened by thug kids isn’t noble its stupid. Bodies in chairs represent $ in the pockets of teachers and administrators, it is the only thing many care about whether in poor inner city Chicago or a wealthy white Connecticut town.
:: I would SO hit that...as she screamed a silent scream of sheer horror. ::
That’s what I figgered,
And why I did not comment...I knew better’n dat.
Dayum!
Did we go to the same high school?
Death and taxes.
Old Faithful geyser.
Sun rising in the east.
Laz hitting it.
LOL! I remember when a store owner had his head split open by a fire axe! LOLLLLL they pulled his brains right out, then set the store owners daughter on fire, and slit open her belly and strangled her with her own intestines!!! OMG that was so funny!!! LOL
That was junior high for me in Dallas. What made it so volatile is that it was half Mexican and half white. My high school was in Lake Oswego, Oregon and that was quite different, and lilly white. And they had the best budget in the state there, where most everyone went on to college.
But even there, I had my altercations, one of which was the “school bully” who picked a fight with me at school during lunch. He started the fight and I finished it, sending him to the hospital. It was like in the movies, chairs and tables were pushed back and scattered, kids all around us, forming a ring that teachers couldn’t get through, and finally when they did, they pulled me off him. He never came back to school again after that ... too embarrassed that I beat him to a pulp ... :-) ...
