    Sounds like the kid is really screwed up! SAD!!! The police had come to the school twice before because of the kids problems. What the hell is mom doing, or not doing, to this kid that he is so far out of control?

    Sadly it's not just this kid. This country is currently raising a crop of losers! Parents are just not there for the kids. It's sad that bad kids, while in the minority, overshadow the great kids.

    Oh, I don't know, electroshock therapy has efficacy in certain mood disorders.

    For a minute there I thought this was an article about the least cordial but most prolific poster over in Fred's House of Politics, for whom something like this was only a matter of time, although 2nd grade is at a level more advanced than I would have supposed.

    Then again, maybe it was:

    "... admitted he has problems controlling his anger. “Just kind of like whenever anybody upsets me,†he said. “Like I just kind of want to tear them apart … I think it’s not ever going to go away … It’s just who I am.â€

    Eerie.

    Pepper spray sounds excessive, but I bet it got the little buggers attention.

    I just saw the little SOB on CNN..... Mom's a loser, kids playing killing video games. Kids talking how he is going to kill everybody, mom can't see the problem...

    There really needs to be a test to see if your QUALIFIED to raise children!

    My wife is an assistant teacher and splits time between 1st and 3rd grades. She says that every class now seems to have at least one kid (not quite this bad) that takes an unfair amount of the teachers' time to try and control. Once they meet the parents they fully understand why the kids are that way. The parents are either clueless, have never told the kids no or either just do not give a sh*t.

    She says, like someone said below, that the sad part is that the good kids are lacking teacher attention due to the bad kids.

    On one hand, imagine how much better off we'd all be if everyone had loving, involved, caring parents. On the other hand, imagine the hue and cry over the invasion of privacy involved in 'allowing' procreation.

    And if it weren't for that, I'd be a teacher. A good one, I'd like to think. But there's just no way I'd put up with the crap that goes on in most classrooms these days. It's a wonder people learn anything at all.

    Ah.....the elephant in the room. The question: "Where's dad?"

    Boys develop their sense of self-control from their fathers.

    The old days weren't necessarily all that good either. After a past economic downturn (1970s), an ex-gf's dad spent a bunch of time retraining to return to the classroom. The first morning on the new job, dad didn't put up with the crap from one particular student. Fired by lunch time.

    Kept track of that 'student'. The next person to discipline him was the judge who sentenced him to the big house for first degree murder. Dad could tell me when he was eligible for his first parole hearing.

    Dad never went back to teaching.

    they probably did him a favor by firing him before the kid did.

    As the president of a school board, this topic causes me anxiety. School law has become very complex, especially in the area of special education.

    We are one of the smallest and most geographically isolated school districts in the state, and yet we find ourselves embroiled in one of the most complex and costly special education lawsuits. It is a difficult and costly burden for our small community.

    they should make the parents take responsibility and pay for the bulk of their own kids problems.


    they made it, they're responsible
