Man this teacher for sure is not hot and not cool either. taking her anger on a child :(
WTF. Accident My Ass, its not everyday you just happened to 'accidently' cut off a kid's tongue after you threaten him.
She should be in jail for that. Hell the parent should sue the hell out of her.
Sure the kid was noisy, but he's just 7 years old, you can't expect any better from him.
oh, no. horrible teacher. is she insane?
Somehow, I doubt the veracity of this...
Right dcecision, Ex-teacher, you can't fight fire with fire, you have to counter it with what they lack. You proclaim that you don't have that 'special something', you know you don't belong in teaching. What you do have is the same screaming weenie factor as the kids you despise, just larger.
@IKillWhitePeople
It seems to me that your ridiculous threats (and your name for that matter) make you far worse than Ex-teacher...
CRAZY AZZ iTALiAN BiA
Apparently this story is severely slanted, and should be corrected. The Italian press are reporting that the incident was an accident. The child's tongue was not cut off, but required stitches after he, angry at the teacher threatening him to be quite or else.. ran towards the teacher carrying scissors, and BAM! you have your story.
Pineapples
Ver nice!
mm .. tongue .. tasty .
Hey, IKillWhitePeople.
A nice handle by the way; it's so clever that it doesn't open up a glaring hypocrisy in your rant.
Firstly, I strongly suggest that before you start cleansing the human gene pool by means of castration, you attend your local community centre for some basic lessons in English; I would focus on grammar and punctuation.
Secondly, as mentioned above, don't you think you are being a tad hypocritical? You claim to be an advocate of peace (i.e. you see there is something digusting in ExTeacher's want in throwing sulfuric acid at a child's face), yet you say you'd wish to chop ExTeacher up and send him or her in small pieces back to his or her's family.
Real smart.
I work in a kindergarten class four days a week and though the kids can get a bit annoying at times, I can safely say that I have never once been tempted to cause any of the children harm in any way. What this substitute teacher did was horriffic, and completely inexcuseable.
Ex-Teacher, all I have to say, is if you hated your students and fantasized about making them cry, what could've possibly made you choose a career in teaching? I want to teach children because I love them, I love the smiles on their faces and they way they jump up and hug me when I come into the class. And while some have been taught bad habits by their parents, it is up to teachers to do whatever they can to prepare the children for the real world, where people are not as forgiving as their parents, but not usually psychopaths either. This means firm but gentle guidance, not chopping off tongues.
i think you should all just shut up.
I hope they don't make an example of this teacher. Who amongst us *hasn't* accidentally hurt another person in some way or another??
Ex-Teacher got pretty much owned there, Because the Future Teacher had a strong point, if you hate kids that much (I also think kids can be annoying) however I don't get why in hell that someone would be stupid enough to start teach kids if they hate them so much?
Baloney!
What Ex teacher failed to mention is that he was a teacher for the Taliban in Afghanistan but they thought he was a little insane so they fired him.
I think its a shame that an adult cannot control a 7 year old, but would much rather resort to cutting off his tongue. Very sad. When she goes to jail....the other inmates are going to have a field day with her. Serves her right!
Though I think Ex-Teacher is a little extreme I must say that what he/she is touting isn't too far from what teachers I used to have in school are saying nowadays. I'm not saying it's right but the educational system in the US has become one of a daycare service. Parents, it seems, don't teach their children anymore because of lack of time and/or affection. Where I live you can no longer really punish a student (detention, In-school suspension, out-of school suspension, etc). Teachers tell me that a student could be beating the living shit out of you and yet if you raised your hand to them and slapped them during the whole melee then you would get seriously reprimanded by your superiors and possibly face assault charges from the parents.
I also agree with Future Teacher about why he/she is wanting to get into teaching. Most teachers have the same mentality when they start. All I can say is I pray to God that as the days come and go that Future Teacher has the same mentality 10 - 20 years down the road as he/she does at this very moment.
Though what Ex-Teacher says seems reprehensible, never being a teacher or wanting to teachs the brats of today, I'd like to hear what other former and current teachers feel and have to say about this whole scenario.
