No child who is so out of control that he needs a parent with him in school (per the IEP) should be in a class with other children who need a reasonably calm and controlled atmosphere to learn. That's insane.

The kid was smart enough to bring the gun on the one day his parents weren't there. Absolutely premeditated.

This is why I left my kindergarten class mid year. I had 3 specific children making threats, hurting, and throwing furniture. I was told to document. That was it. Absolutely no support. It was horrible, stressful and unfair to me and my students.

I'm sorry to say, but that child's parents need to be held seriously accountable!!!🙏😢❣️

Can I just point out that Abigail, shot through the hand and chest, still cleared the classroom for her students' safety? Glory to her.

Parents need to be charged. This is just insane.

I am an education (kinder teacher) and what makes me the angriest when it comes to cases like this is that the school doesn’t think of the other students in the classroom. This child was allowed to stay in the classroom despite his destructive behavior and threats. How the heck are the other students are able to learn in that kind of environment? And all the school says is to document the behavior, like that is suppose to do something.

My friend was a middle school teacher and the students were not allowed to have cell phones in class. When she tried to get the cell phone away from the boy she was attacked so violently she wound up in the hospital. A boy in the class went to her aid and probably saved her life. My friend recovered but never went back to teaching. Something must be done about this. When I was in school (in the 1960s) this was unheard of. I'm amazed that anyone would be a teacher in these days,

"He wanted to light her on fire and watch her die," but somehow kids under seven are not capable of comprehending the act of killing someone.

Parents are responsible here. They're lying about how the kid managed to access the firearm.

No one who lives with a mentally unstable person who has expressed a desire to harm themselves or others should have a gun in the home, "secured" or not. And fortunately we have absolute proof that the gun was not adequately secured: a six year old accessed it and used it, so it was not. There is no other option. I say all of this as a gun owner. I am infuriated that the parents are trying to make themselves look anything but recklessly negligent. It is their fault, entirely, that their child had access to that weapon.

I work as a camp counselor and last year we had a 7 year old with an autism diagnosis. He was very aggressive with the other children. He kicked and hit them, and so we asked the mom to take him out of our camp. She was furious, said we advertised as “inclusive to special needs” which we are. But we do not make accommodations for kids who feel the need to physically assault other kids. Turned out the mom was a special Ed teacher too. We have animals at our camp, and this kid before the incident also shoved a rooster off a table and laughed about it. I verbally disciplined him and took the animal away. Told him we couldn’t have animals at camp if he was gonna hurt them. This made him upset but his story to him mom was he “dropped” the rooster. And she believed him. I was furious because the camp is actually run by my family so the animals including the rooster are mine. So mom expected us to accommodate for hitting, kicking and animal cruelty for this little shit. I have worked with kids on the autism spectrum, they are often the most lovable children, super smart and they tend to do very well at our camp. This kid was not just showing signs of autism, I think there were some type b personality traits in there. You don’t often see kids hurt animals

As a retired teacher of 33 years this story just reminds me of why I left when I did. Having a lack of administrative support, oversized classes, and parents that often blame the teacher for their child's behavior are very common problems nationwide. She was, at 25, an obviously new teacher with only 2-3 years experience under her belt. The student was apparently very aggressive and disturbed and should have been receiving a LOT of supervision and supportive care. For someone to say they kept a 9mm handgun under lock and key, with a trigger lock, unloaded, and yet this child still managed to obtain it, load it, and carry it to school is ludicrous. They are covering their own lack of compliance with the law. This whole story is disturbing on so many levels. I hope the teacher recovers quickly and then hires a good Attorney.

This is exactly why a lot of teachers are leaving the field to do something else. My daughter teaches in public school, and she says she has almost no tools for providing discipline in her class. She also tells me that if she expresses concerns about a student, she is told it’s her fault and she should work harder. She has taught for five years, and she’s strongly considering not signing a contract for next year. I support her decision and will be cheering when she leaves. I never thought I would feel that way about her doing teaching. I was so happy and proud of her when she chose education has her degree in college. I knew she was doing something good and honorable. Now I just want her out of the line of potential fire and away from the constant bedlam that public school classes have become.

Charges against parents need to be filed.Fines. Jail terms. It needs to HURT!!!Maybe this will smarten up these foolish parents.

One of the main reason I got a general education degree rather than completing my degree is that teachers are the scapegoat for the world's problems it would seem.

So the student has a learning plan where the parents are in school with him every day. Yet the student is frequently found wandering around the school unsupervised during class time? And the 9mm had the safety on, but somehow the 6 year old was able to disable this, rack the slide, and shoot the teacher? What is going on in that child’s home?

Sadly enough, as a current public school teacher of 19 years, I can clearly "see" everything that you described. Students are sometimes treated better than the teachers. We're needed, but they're valued more. As far as the initial report not being reported to the police before the shooting, having a gun on campus is a relation nightmare, so no gun found=no problem, which also equates to nothing to report. I admire her ability to get the other students safely out of the room. I'm sure it was shock. If I were in her position, I would file charges against the child, the parents, the school, the district, etc etc etc. It's not about money. We don't go into teaching for the money, it's about the principle of the situation. If his parents usually have to be present, he should not have been allowed back in that room.

I left teaching in 2016 and every single day I hear something that just reinforces that I made the right choice.

What's done to children, they do to the world. -- Albert Schweitzer, MD.

Listen as a former educator this story literally triggers me. And it’s exactly why I left the field at the end of 2021. I graduated in 2019 and only taught for 2 years. The school never listens when you bring up these alarming behaviors. They always wait until something happens then all the sudden they want to be sorry. That student should’ve been removed from classroom and that student Is not capable of being in a class with other students. He poses a danger to himself his teacher and the other students.

I'm old enough to remember when disciplining schoolchildren was the job of parents, freeing teachers to do their jobs: to teach.

As a law enforcement officer if we are contacted about there possibly be an armed student at a school we usually detain the student and contact the parents to have them check the last location they kept their weapon. If law enforcement had been contacted we most likely would have retrieved the weapon before the incident because even if he had another student hold the firearm for him because he thought he might get searched we would have verified with the parents that the firearm is missing so we would know that he hit it somewhere or has a friend holding it for him.

That poor little kid, feeling hate that intense at 6 yrs old. What will his life be like? So sad.

I think the teacher was incredibly brave to put the students’ safety first after she had been shot. The little boy needs a full psych evaluation and his parents have to face the fact he needs help.

We had a kid in my 1st grade in 1967 who would scream and throw desks and even beat up the scariest bully. This kid was a girl. She eventually disappeared and nobody missed her. This needs to happen now. It's not fair to the other students to have these disruptful and dangerous kids in the class. Traumatize twenty kids to indulge one. Great policy.

Ex middle school teacher here-I had a student in my class one year who had some behavior issues. Mostly he was just disruptive and liked to cause trouble. I had to constantly move him to new seats or send him to the dean. One day he was on a mission to disrupt the class. I gave him a verbal warning. The classmates seated next to him heard him say under his breath that he was going to ‘kill me’ if I moved his seat again. After class was over, those students told me what he had said. I of course reported it to my Principal right away. The Principal told me that the boy didn’t mean it and that it wasn’t a big deal, but that he did tell the boy to come say he was sorry to me. I never saw the boy again. His parents pulled him from the school and moved away from what I heard.

The kiddo's parents must be held accountable to the maximum the law will provide.

I teach in this school division and have received more information from teachers who work in the school. The boy put the gun in his coat and took it to recess. He showed it to multiple students and when they returned to the classroom, they told the teacher. She called administrators so that’s why they searched his backpack. They failed to search his coat or his person for fear of violating his rights. When teachers leave early for a sickness, etc. they will place the teacher’s students in the other teacher’s classrooms if there is not a substitute available for that class. That could explain the teacher sometimes having additional students. Teachers go through a lot more than the public realizes, and do it mostly alone with little to no support.

The parents of this child should be held accountable.

With regard to the attitude of parents; I'm in the UK, and did two horrible years as a supply teacher, substitute teacher in the US, and the attitude of many parents was summed up by one mother stating that she had always told her children to "stand up to teachers"........Huge numbers of children are specifically taught by their parents to have no respect for any kind of authority.

I had a similar situation. Thank God the child "only"destroyed my room and threatened to kill me, all my requests for help went unanswered by administrators. They hid the incident from the parents but my brave first graders told their parents the truth

They blaming this on being absent from class?! Are they insane? Why on earth was he able to get the gun? Charge the parents immediately... Negligence! He coumd have killed multiple people and himself.

SIX YEARS OLD. Intentional, premeditated. So hard to absorb just how sad this is. He's been exposed to some bad things, this isn't just about access to a fire arm. It will no doubt come back to the parents and the environment he was living in.

HOLD THE SCHOOLS ACCOUNTABLE! THEY KNEW,,, TOO MANY WARNING SIGNS THEY CHOOSE TO IGNORE.

Student behavior is out of control in schools across the country. What you said, Dr. Grande, about parents whose children have been disciplined wanting the teachers fired is accurate. It's one of the top reasons teachers are leaving the profession. I retired 4 years ago because of the lack of administrative support.

His posession of the gun proves that it was loaded, unsecured and had no trigger lock.

I am an elementary teacher and I have had students like this. I had a student my first year who wanted to lock us in the closet and hear us starve to death. This is not uncommon. My current school, we have several kids EXACTLY like this student. It is beyond frustrating.EDIT TO ADD it’s so sad when one students takes so much time and attention away from the 24 other kids in a class. They deserve attention too. Sometimes when there are very difficult students, the ones who are quiet/well behaved are hurt the most by the chaos that can happen when your teacher has to call the cops to your room and you have to run out because of one very unstable student. The needs of the one over needs of the many.

I've had several students who have thrown things, furniture, hit other kids, yelled constantly, left the classroom, etc. And teachers have to deal with it for at least 6 weeks while you observe and document to then request testing for an IEP. It's insane.

You hit the nail on the head when you said that teachers are in a difficult situation ......... I am a teacher and the Administration is not interested in supporting teachers, but in increasing their numbers and pleasing parents. Parents believe that teachers are their enemies and that their children are angels. The Administration blames the teachers, the parents blame the teachers. On top of that, every day we are given more responsibilities with less resources and no help. Once a parent sent me an email listing the ways I should manage my class, while the principal was too preoccupied making rounds and yelling at the teachers he found sitting at their desks resting for a while. Another time he called a staff meeting after class and five minutes or so into the meeting, he locked the door to the gym (which was where the meeting was being held) so that teachers who weren't there couldn't get in. I couldn't go in because I needed to drink water after having been teaching for three consecutive periods before the staff meeting. I think something has to change, otherwise it is not very promising.

This is extremely disturbing. In the past 30 years we've seen unspeakable acts committed by those that are supposed to be innocent. I never forget the 11 and 13 year old boys who murdered a toddler. There was a boy who recently killed his own mother for not buying him something. Something has gone desperately wrong with our society.

Thank you, Dr. Grande. This is an unimaginable situation. How a child who is little more than a baby, can even conceive a shooting, is beyond comprehension.

This is how it is in public education now. I’ve been in the game 12 years and it’s not pretty most of the time. Teachers are unsupported and then blamed by administration. Teachers get cussed out and beaten up by students and those kids go back to class five minutes later with a lollipop in their mouth for talking about their feelings. 🙄 I no longer call for help. I just run my own discipline and it’s the only thing that works. My kids are sweethearts and do an excellent job in class. Don’t call admin for help because they don’t help because they don’t care. Thanks for being a voice for us, Dr. G!!

It's not just the 6-year-old that presents a conundrum for society. We have yet to answer, "What do we do with all the mentally ill people out there, homeless and unable to care for themselves?" My state has washed their hands of them, determining that it's wrong for them to be detained in a mental institution; it infringes on their rights. So they live as best and as long as they can on the streets or in other difficult circumstances for themselves and for those they impact. It's the same unanswered question, 6 years old or 60 years old.

This sounds exactly like a boy in my child's first grade class last year. My child was "evacuated" several times a week for months when this boy would rage in the classroom--throwing desks and chairs, etc. The teachers weren't allowed to restrain him, due to laws. They weren't allowed to inform us due to privacy--my child would say "He was angry again today" but I had NO. IDEA. how bad it was....I heard from another parent whose child was more talkative months later. He is intelligent enough that they MUST keep him at the regular school, with aides, but he doesn't seem to function well, nor is it working for the children in his class. The school is stuck, due to laws regarding public education access, etc. The parents can't afford or are unwilling to send him somewhere more suited to his needs.... What is anyone to do? My husband said if they still live in the school district in middle school, we're moving, because he's exactly the kind of kid who becomes a school shooter. And now I worry it could be earlier than middle school! It's awful, sad, and frustrating for everyone. I assume he has some sort of Oppositional Defiant disorder. And we live in one of the most affluent and best-rated school districts in the US (just to say if we don't have the resources to help children like this, who does??)

I worked in a pre school (ages 2-6) for 5 years and I observed at least SIX children displaying similar behaviors. I've seen things thrown across the room, I've actually had a child tell me he wanted to stab me in the stomach, a little girl told me she wanted to light all the teachers on fire, another child picked up a chair and threw it, a boy stomped on another little boys stomach, the list goes on and on. These are very young children and I found that even when the parents were notified, more times than not, they were in denial of their child's behavior and/or blaming the school. It's actually very scary; the school had its hands tied and we as teachers were literally not even allowed to say no to the kids let alone discipline them. Dr Grande is right; discipline is needed both in schools at home and parents need to really pull their heads from their ass. If your child is displaying antisocial behaviors they need help in the form of a professional.

I have children in public schools (in VA) and this type of incompetence has me seriously considering homeschooling.

Back when my parents were kids (1960's to 1970's) the teachers were the one that ran the classroom and if the teacher called the parents it wasn't good when the kid got home. I'm in my late 20's and my parents once grounded me for the whole summer when I was misbehaving (I even had my tv taked away lol). Other kids weren't raised like I was raised and I see the outcome now as adults. I'm sure it's even worse with kids now as I see people in my family and just out and about and i'm like this is not going to end well for them when they get into the real world. The parents should be charged with a felony with this case

Dr. Grande this was very informative. I'm curious why a child exhibiting this type of behavior would not be in a more controlled environment. This begs the question about the school administration at the highest level.

Seems like Abigail has all the elements and evidence in her favour for a massive civil lawsuit against the school.

Well said, Dr. Grande. I’m a teacher and live this every day… lack of support, parents backlash when even letting them know their child made a bad choice during the day. I wish the public really knew our daily struggles

I remember the incident where the six year old shot another child in the stairwell. His mother had to work two jobs to make ends meet. She left him with his uncle to be cared for. It was terrible to see the mother, she was utterly broken. She loved her child, but was overwhelmed by the demands of life.

Abigail needs to sue that school to the ground.

I’m no doctor but I gotta say. Violence of this level at this age is not something that’s likely to go away. If this kid is allowed to avoid consequences for this and grows up free, I guarantee he’s gonna try to kill more people. Something like this doesn’t just go away. If I’m wrong, just show me a single case like this where the child was reformed and had no further incidents.

This is crazy, the level of negligence showed by the parents is something else

It’s get more unbelievable and enraging founding out there were THREE reports to administers about the kid and the gun. One where the kid apparently brought it to recess and threatened to shoot a classmate if he told anyone about the gun. The classmate told a teacher about while sobbing. WHAT’S GOING ON IN THAT SCHOOL?!

The parents stayed with the child at school to help with his behavior? When did this start? That’s utter craziness!

This story is equally heartbreaking and so disturbing. Those poor children that witnessed this and what the teacher went through..I hope they get the support they need

A few years ago, when my daughter was in 1st grade, a boy pushed her down and choked her with no provocation. The school said the boy had an IEP and they were working to correct his behavior. I said I want my kid or that kid in a different class. Ultimately, I had to complain to the county superintendent. It felt like there was more concern for the poorly behaved/managed child than for my child.

Why hasn’t the media produced pictures of the parents and their social media history. If the parents dont get charged we can at least ridicule them.

If he was special needs so much he had to be accompanied by a parent, why was he mainstreamed, or allowed in class without said parent?

Whoever searched the kid should also be reprimanded. Outsmarted by a 6 yo? You aren't up to your jobs responsibilities. For shame

As a retired teacher I agree with everything you have said. I taught for 30 years, and now I’m very glad to be out of the classroom. Teachers today have more to deal with than I ever did. I was very sad to hear about this, for the teacher and the little boy.

This is severe negligence on many levels 🤦🏽‍♀️

What a horror story. The parents and the school dropped the ball on that one. I admire the teacher was a hero for getting the other children too safety. I believe the school and parents should have some consequences. Thank you Dr Grande. Brilliant analysis and informative topic.

I NEVER thought I could feel aversion against a 6 year old, and yet here we are.

Bad social skills are rampant in children today. Many Many parents excuse their child's behavior. As a teacher I personally know. In my 10+ years it has increased significantly.

One of the child's parents was supposed to be in the classroom with the child every day -- but they say that was the first day they had not complied with that rule. However, it sounds as if they have not been present quite a few times. Why are they allowed to skip their responsibility? Why is such a disruptive child allowed to be in a regular classroom. I know about having a "least restrictive environment" for each child, but the environment needs to be safe for the other children and teachers. Thanks for your channel and your comments.

After a 23 year military career, I retired to teach High School mathematics in the inner city. During the 7 years in the inner city I had one gun incident in the classroom, one knife fight, I was assaulted twice, and observed unbelievable miss deeds.There was zero administrative support, students ran the institution with no respect of the other students or teachers. I finally transferred to the suburbs and fished a rewarding 20 year career teaching math.

That teacher should get an award for how she calmly got those other kids out of the room and to safety. That 6 year old boy is super frightening, I'm sorry to say. He had to learn it from somewhere.

As someone who graduated in 2020 from a highschool for kids with emotional/behavioural problems a big factor as to why kids these days have so many problems is that they dont know how to handle being told no or not getting special treatment because of this modern parenting style of letting kids do whatever the hell they want and telling them "youre perfect, youre always good, the teacher just doesnt understand you and feels threatened by your intelligence". If youre a teacher i can guarantee you your students are having dinner table conversations with mom amd dad where youre the bad guy and they buy it because "why would my precious, innocent little angel, Jimmy Softnipples ever be the one in the wrong?? Its that mean old school teacher!"

Expect this to happen again if the parents aren't punished like they should. This was avoidable and lack of responsibility degrading society

When teachers ask for help they are labeled as bad classroom managers and marked low on evaluations.

Parents are responsible for this child’s actions. They should be arrested and fined.

This is my 7th year of teaching in high needs public schools in the US, and let me tell you, this hell has been going on for years. The school system is falling apart, and this incident is a symptom and evidence of that.

Having taught in an inner city school for 22 years, none of this surprises me at all! Hatred is learned at home!

I'm now 60+ YO. I recently retired early from mental health nursing. We faced very similar dangers and chaos while often understaffed, trying to care for psychotic and often violent patients . Fiscal concerns and public perception was always more of a priority with administration than staff safety. I thank god I am old enough to be retired. One day, in the not so distant future, teachers and nurses will become scarce. No-one in their right mind will choose these professions.

I'm a teacher, and Abigail is an unfortunate victim of the toxic environment of which we are working. This environment needs to change.

I know a guy who told me his own 5/6 year old says weird stuff about wanting to hurt or kill people. They have the kid in therapy, but the dad says the kid knows how to be "normal" in front of the therapist. It's really disturbing. I assumed kids like that had to be abused badly, but I know this guy doesn't do that. They have to be getting it from somewhere though, because kids that young mostly mimic what they think adults are doing.

I cannot fathom what IEP would require a parent to accompany a child to school each day. In my 8 years as a teacher, I have never heard of any IEP that required a parent to attend school with their child. It certainly speaks to the severity of the child's behavior. Under no circumstances should he have been in a mainstream classroom. That he is only 6 years old and is already displaying signs of extreme emotional disturbance is very unsettling. The state of public education is disgraceful.

You are 100% spot on about parents getting enraged about consequences at school and the kids running the school is exactly what ehat happens. Parent your dang kids! The rest of the world has to deal with them for their entire lives.

I used to be a preschool teacher and whenever you called the front desk to get help, they tell you, you're a professional handle it!!! My question is why are these children even put in the classroom with regular kids? We spent all our time trying to control that child in the other kids don't are cheated out of it and education. I just took a course on substitute teaching but I've since changed my mind

What a mess. The government, school, other individual teachers, and parents all failed this young teacher. Did they really have a parent come to school with a kid? I can't imagine any teacher being able to do their job with a parent there.

The fact that it was believed the child had a gun and it was reported to administrators three times and the administration said the day is almost over just let it go shocks the hell out of me. The child showed the gun to another child and said if he told anyone he would kill him. The child put the gun in his pocket for recess. So many failures by the school system. Two previous shootings at Newport News schools and no changes. Superintendent terminated as of February. But gets considerably large amount of money upon departure. This teacher deserves everything she can get!!!

I'm sure the parents of the other children are very concerned about their Safety. If I was the teacher I would not go back to this school. Very traumatizing. This child should not be allowed back in this school. Parents need to be held accountable. School needs to be held accountable. Thank you Dr Grande!🎈🎊 So sad. I am glad the teacher survived.

Parents should be charged and the administrator who could have prevented this. I'll never send my kids to public schools.

Absolutely outrageous that the student's IEP requires his parents to be in the classroom with him. How distracting was this kid in the classroom? Every kid deserves an education, INCLUDING all of those other kids in the classroom. Now they're traumatized for life, after watching their teacher get shot. All because school officials left this very troubled child in a regular classroom & failed to intervene after reports of the gun. And I can't believe there have been no charges filed against the parents. That gun was OBVIOUSLY not properly secured!

I retired from teaching recently. Conditions like this are ramping up exponentially. It is at a critical point.

Some people are just born evil, there is no rehabilitation, just a slippery slope of horrific behavior.

I taught elementary school for Newport News Public Schools for 6 years. I've always been an advocate for the systems approach to the safety of their employees, families and communities. In past 5 years or so with school districts across the country , teacher's voices are not always considered, parents seem to have control over administrators and teacher's dont have the support of leaders. Unfortunately, it seems as if no matter the situation, the teacher face the consequences, it's their fault and the families come out on top.

wtf is wrong with the parents that they don't, can't, won't discipline their brats?! Parents should be held accountable for what their offspring do that harms others. It's scary to send kids to school nowadays more than ever!

*Don't underestimate what a kid can learn from just watching!* Watching his parents, watching tv, watching KZfaq, etc.!

My sister retired 2 years ago after 20 years as a special needs teacher. I’ve heard stories of many kids like this. It wore her out, trying to deal with violent 6, 7, and 8 year olds. She didn’t want to retire, but to hear her tell it, it sounded like at times her job was similar to a correction officer’s. The district put behavioral problem students in the same classroom as Downs Syndrome kids, so she’d be teaching one kid to count and tie his shoes, and in the same class struggling to deal with a violent little thug whose dad was in prison and his mom on crack. It was a mess.

we have every reason to blame complacent, ignorant school officials; the chaotic system then encourages society to "hug the shooter/murderer," encouraging them to do what they do. and then as years go by, the crimes & grievances multiply and they eventually end up in prison. i understand how schools have difficulty finding teachers at all.

This story and how it happened us a nightmare. Thank you Dr. Grande. These situations do not draw new teachers to the profession.

This is what it's like daily in all blc schools.

What's wrong with that kid's mind?

I know someone who teaches public school in the same geographic area as this case. She has seen horrifying behavior by parents- physically fighting on school grounds with each other- and has so many students that have parents designated with "no contact allowed" or are living with relatives other than their parents, or are in the care of just one parent, etc. And then the issue of communicating with parents about behavior problems or academic failings- the fact that the KIDS have openly spoken about trying to get teachers fired that they don't like- all adds up to chaos. Administrators are not supportive of teachers, being more worried about test scores and keeping parents off their backs. The constant testing. The problems related to constant cell phone use and abuse. The addiction to social media. Having 7th and 8th graders arriving to class drunk or high. Our public schools are a reflection of the society providing the students! This particular student sounds like a candidate for an exorcism, however! And while I am not diagnosing anyone at this point(!) his actions certainly seem psycho or sociopathic! I cannot imagine this child ever NOT being a danger to himself or others. Bottom line, however, is that every person in that school is being held hostage to the needs of the student in question. Administration did nothing to alleviate the chaos in the classroom, or the rest of the school. If the student had a "plan" that included the necessary attendance of a parent everyday, why was he allowed to attend without a parent?? Why was the teacher told to "drop it" when desperately seeking help from Administrators?! What a mess!! We are turning out graduates who cannot read, or think, or handle basic math- just to keep up appearances? But they can all access their apps, and use inappropriate ones with ease! Sigh.....thank you for filling in many pertinent details in this case. Sheds more light on this particular situation, even if that light shows the deeper problems present! Can you examine the case of our current rage filled, mass shooting happy, hate propelled and ignorant society? I am seeking insight! And solutions!

The mother needs to be held accountable for this. And if I was this teacher, I would sue the family, as well as the school. Disgraceful.

The mother needs to go to jail and the victim needs to sue her for all she’s worth.
