unbelievable watch this

Teachers are told not to ever physically restrain or remove a kid from a classroom, so I don't think the teacher did anything wrong by calling the SRO. I personally would have removed all the other kids from the classroom before the SRO got there, for safety reasons, and so **** doesn't make it to twitter/instagram in 8 second chunks.

why, so you remove all witnesses?

I think there are other ways to handle that situation. If that student wants to behave that way, then just allow her to until the day is over and then suspend her for a few days and notify her parent(s). If it continues, she can look elsewhere for her education.

What about the other classes that should be taking place in that room? Is that fair to the other students? In my high school, there was not an open room during any period, and I went to a 2000 + student high school.
 
Damn now they have cops come in to take kids out of class. Things have stepped up since I was in school.

Or to remove the audience. I'm guessing some of her actions were to act tough and put on a show for the rest of the class.

well if she's still in that seat when the next class needs to start, then you remove her by force.
 
Im not that old and in my small high school, if you messed with the wrong teacher, this would be your eventual fate. Nobody cried, nobody sued, nobody got fired. And guess what, it never happened again with that student. Sometimes people need an *** kicking to learn to act right. If this were my kid, id tell them they should have listened and this wouldn't have happened.
 
Play stupid games - win stupid prizes. Im tired of all these idiot thugs thinking the cops did something bad to them when they are clearing asking for it. This guy didnt just walk in the classroom and do this for no reason. I'm also tired how this generation has to video everything to do with police and criticize them.

Suspensions don't work. That's what the kid wanted.
 

I don't get your logic in this at all. Ok to disrupt one class but not another?

how is she disrupting class by being on her phone? Now I get why the teacher asked her not to be and obviously her refusal deserved punishment and her continued refusal to go to the principals office deserved more punishment. I'm just saying that if I were the teacher, I'd have just told her she can sit there if she wants but if she doesn't leave her parent(s) will be called to pick her up because she'll be suspended.

Whether she deserved it or not, a male police officer putting his hands on a young female and yanking her out of a chair and dragging her across the floor is not a good look, and can't be the best way to go about that situation.

what a scary and backward thought.

As far as the video goes, the longer version, which starts about 30 seconds before the version linked by the OP, does not show her punching the officer before he gets physical. She does not touch him before he grabs her in any version I have seen. Perhaps that video exists, but there are no accounts that I'm aware of that say the student made first contact. I'd like to see an even longer version, but I doubt it exists. I'd also like confirmation on who made first contact. If there was no prior physical contact than what we see in the video, then that cop is going to be fired and probably sued.
 
I see nothing wrong with what was done... If a punk kid isn't going to be respectful in class, then let him have it, otherwise why would he think he has to respect anybody. Back when I was in school we didn't need cops in schools because the teachers handled it instead of them worried about being sued or fired because they laid a hand on some kid disrupting their class. Keep being soft on the kids and this won't go anywhere but a lot worse..

This.
"However, a third video from Instagram shows Fields try and pick the female student out of her desk, but the student then hits the officer while he brings the desk to the ground.
The person who posted the Instagram video says the student was initially asked to leave the class for telling the teacher that she would not put away her phone. The poster says the teacher disciplined the student with a write-up for being disrespectful and disobedient. After being asked to leave again, and her refusing, an administrator came to remove her, she refused, and that is when the SRO was called in.
The poster of this video claims when Fields got to the classroom, he asked her to get up from her desk 4 or 5 times and again, she tells him no. After moving objects from around the student, and asking again to leave the classroom, and her refusing, that is where you see the officer getting physical."

The kid was a brat. Society needs to start emphasizing/teaching personal responsibility and respect, which is a parental shortcoming nowadays.

Cop shouldn't have done it. BUT, I know if this happened to me, the first thing my dad would say is "why the **** didn't you just put your phone away?". This isn't a generational thing, since I'm only a few years removed from high school myself. It's a parenting issue.

See, that's where I think the problem is. This doesn't scare kids these days like it did when I was a kid.

Agreed. This student looks like they are the ultimate authority in their world and no one can get in their way. I would bet if the parents did come and their child was disobeying them, the parents probably would have done the same thing as the officer. However, I suspect poor parenting in this instance hence the behavior being displayed.

But lets say you do call the parents for them to come to school, how is that fair to the learning of the other students, having this distraction for a day in class?

I know its the law that every child must attend school, but things like this make me wonder if we just do away with this so that those who want to better them selves can be in a positive learning environment and those that don't care don't have to be a disruption to others and not attend school.

Plenty of wrongs on both sides in this story, but I like what you said in your post


My dad would have stuck my phone up my A. then made me pay for it and the monthly charges for the next year or just take it away.

Most of todays parents: My baby has rights! sue school. make money. never my kids fault.


Couple of things I did wrong and my principal punished me growing up in school.

Kicked my locker: he saw me do it. (I had my hands full and was just trying to shut it) He made me come in and clean all the outsides of the JH lockers.

Slapped the top of the door while walking out of the gym from PE: He made me come in at 6 and do jumps until I wasn't going to do that anymore. Not even sure why..

Threw a spit wad and got caught: I had to come in early and vacuum a multi purpose room. which is like vacuuming a Gymnasium.

There is more, but you get my drift.

and I was a good kid....I respect him and our teachers for that because they disciplined me and talked to me about it. The problem is now a days. A kid can just pop off at his face and he can't do a damn thing about it.


God Bless America.

Your principal seems a bit over the top, but we're on the same page here.

That's because we have a nation of kids that are in charge. All forms of discipline have been removed and criminalized.
