Legitimate debate on kids in schools

Uber I'm not asking what teachers should do. I'm asking about security and how they should engage children that are violent or aggressive. Because right now there really isn't a standard for which a child should or should not be arrested, thrown down or worst case tazed.

More often then not teachers are rarely suited to deal with these students, which is why I'm asking about security and others that deal with these students on a daily basis. I dont have any issues with violent students, they like my class. But I've had numerous students who go to suspension because of fights in lunch or something.

Like the security guy who was just fired. If the student refuses to leave, you cant ask nicely and simply say please get out of the chair. So that's why I asked you all from an unbiased teacher perspective, what do you think should be done? Kids are literally bearing security guards in one of those videos. What is the alternative to security manhandling a student who refuses to comply?

God damn it all to hell, anyways.

Just laid out my plan to fix this shit and I took so long, it logged me out. Tried to log back in and it was GONE.

Oh, well. Your loss, America.

I feel teachers are not paid nearly enough to deal with these aggravating shits in school, so maybe some kind of corporal punishment needs to come back.

Too much coddling going on here. I don't think this girl is emblematic of SROs getting out of hand with students at school - I think the larger issue is any public official retaining the ability/means to punish unacceptable behavior at school without fear of scrutiny in the public eye or through litigious means. It then makes sense that they would rely upon the SRO as they're recognized as state level police officers. Do I agree with the idea? Not at all. But it's where we've gone.

The kids feel like they can get away with anything these days.
