Quote:My wife's a teacher, and I'm a parent.  And I agree that teachers definitely don't get the respect they deserve.  But I do think pushing a student is going a bit far.  There are other disciplinary actions available.  Jailtime seems a bit ridiculous though.  I could see a short-term suspension.  But I could also see a suspension for the kid.  

 

Teachers are often sadly under a microscope.  Anything they do, even at home, is considered representing the school.
