[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 435078, member: 84"] Hopefully some good will come of it. I agree. Personally, I think it would be wise if school boards and the like were to not only put into place measures to protect special needs students, but also require specific training for teachers for when such situations arise......self defense moves that can quickly defuse the threat with some means of calling for back up to prevent escalation to protect both teachers and other students in the classroom. However it seems, at least around here that school officials don't want to admit that it is a problem, let alone a serious one. (and we're a small town for pete's sake) So it doesn't get dealt with in any real sense. I don't think the teacher should lose her job. I do think the student should suffer some real consequences for his actions. And I'm sorry but as for the students who didn't go for help...........ehhhh I'm not so into letting them off the hook either. Of course had that been my kid doing that to a teacher..........well, he'd have begged to be arrested so he wouldn't have to come home and face ME. [/QUOTE]
