Getting fired for reporting to cps while your a mandatory reporter sounds like a huge employment lawsuit

I’m always suspicious of the mom “who didn’t know anything about the abuse.”

The fact that the school cared more for its image than the students and that the teacher got FIRED for literally following the law is disgusting and horrifying.

12:57 seriously, if you get fired for making a CPS call, be glad you left the crap place.

Making the assaulted student alternate days with the assaulter is just punishing the victim again. If I were the parent of the girl, I'd be insisting that the school figure out a way to deal with him and let her have her proper education.

So many of these stories have the root cause of homelife being disrupted, negligent, or dysfunctional. It's amazing how intervening early and actually dealing with these behaviors will help, yet this video is just a snippet into the massive amount of households that refuse to act on them.

That kid scream crying whilst staring at the teacher smiling maniacally with no tears would be FUCKING TERRIFYING

"Fourth graders are typically very sweet, light-hearted, and not bratty yet." I want to know what fourth grade class they're talking about because I went to a private LUTHERAN school in fourth grade, and my classmates were throwng around inuendos and swearing like nobody's business. They knew exactly what they were saying, too. The third and fourth grade teacher said that our class and the class befotre us were probably the worst two classes she had taught in her 35 years of teaching at the same school. My teachers from 7th and 8th grade completely agree. There were fights everywhere, we were almost a year behind on material because of class disruptions (which resulted in everyone coming close to failing and having to repeat), vaping in the bathrooms, death threats from students to other students in THIRD GRADE. Third grade! For years, I've been wondering how the parents can just let their kids act like this. The parents act like their kids can do no wrong, when the teachers and classmates are saying otherwise. The students even acted in these ways toward their parents, as I saw at sporting events. I can't blame any of these behaviors on mental disability, because the only IEPs in the class were for speech impediments. We went on an overnight field trip to a summer camp in 7th grade, and my classmates had ZERO respect for anyone, even the camp leaders (as I was told. I had a migraine from the heat, so I had to stay in the cabin for the entire trip). The class after mine went to the same camp the next year, and they were still talking about our class, saying that the other class was so much better, and I don't blame them. My classmates sucked. They still act like this sometimes in high school. I hope they grow up soon, because I don't want to know where they will end up if they don't.

Compulsive scab picking and such can be a sign of stuff like depression and anxiety, and to some degree can be a thing with ADHD or autism, where the texture feels wrong so you try to get it off. For anxiety and depression, it usually comes from needing some kind of physical input to stop thoughts, so many turn to picking scabs so they don't harm themselves worse

Every child deserves parents, not every parent deserves a child, and some kids are just straight up nightmares

I threw up a lot of red flags when I was a kid based on the content of my stories and essays, coupled with my behavior, which was pretty atrocious and odd (before things were diagnosed). My parents would be contacted because I had adult themes and violence in my stories. Very well written, but with stuff that a second or third grader shouldn’t know about. I wasn’t getting it from my parents or any violence or sex at home, I was just watching TV and reading books above grade level and didn’t know it wasn’t appropriate for school. When I was around 9 I wrote about a girl who introduces her mom to her new boyfriend and her mom goes ballistic because the new boyfriend’s dad had raped her in the past. Later on in the story, the mom’s rapist stalks and kills her. I didn’t know rape was off the table. Honestly, it’s got to be pretty difficult to tell the difference between a child’s active imagination versus actual issues and situations they’re dealing with. I can see where you’d want to err on the side of caution but I’m also quite glad no one ever proceeded with anything legally with my parents. It wasn’t anything bad going on at home.

I was an IEP kid and let me tell you there are some very interesting people in that program. I remember in particular we have one girl that everyone in the actual group of kids would call Miss psycho, and not to be mean. She once punched our pregnant teacher in the belly trying to cause a miscarriage; another time she ran off with the wheelchair of our one-legged teacher's aide because she thought it would be funny to watch him hobble after it. And if she got mad her fits were so bad that the teachers weren't even allowed to handle them anymore they had to call the resource officer that was stationed at the school to handle it. The last time I saw her was after my school locked her in one of what they called The quiet rooms which was basically just a closet for the kids that they didn't know how to handle. It had a small window that you couldn't see through a desk that was screwed to the wall and if you were lucky a chair, she was not though. I was actually in the room next door to her at this time because I had argued with the teacher earlier in the day because they were wrong on something they were teaching us and refused to admit it but I had a chair. It was right after lunch time and surprisingly the secretaries had remembered our food this time. This meant she had a tray screwed on desk and the window. She use the tray to break the window then open the door from the outside which is the only way you could open the door. After she was free she decided to open my door to free me, which was honestly quite surprising, before going to the secretarial desk and holding one of the secretaries at glass point. I stayed in my closet for the hour long stand off that ensued. The resource officer eventually got the upper hand and she was taken out in cuffs screaming she would quote "blow this building sky high." Another boy broke one of the other windows using his head the next year and was apparently laughing when the paramedics arrived. I think part of the reason we all went insane in those rooms at some point or another but it's basically a 10 by 10 closet where they could shut the lights off to quote "keep us calm". Many of us spent most of the year in those. It was basically like giving students solitary confinement for a very small crimes.

The day Twin Towers were destroyed my daughter was in 4th grade. I took her to school, not sure if school was cancelled or not. One of her classmates, who was also a new friend, came running up at school, telling us that her aunt had fallen out of the window of the 80th floor of one of the towers! She was crying and I started giving her my condolences. Then she pipes up and told me she was being transported to the hospital with a broken leg...after falling 80 floors. This kid was know to lie and I let it slide but I was really angry with her, as it was a terrible day, and told her that it couldn't have been the 80th floor. She doubled down and started screaming at me that it was. I told her I didn't believe her and it was a terrible thing to lie about. Later that day, after much thought, I went and saw her mother about it, wondering if she needed some help. The mother told me that she wasn't lying as she did have an Aunt who lived in New York. Apparently the mother thought that any sliver of truth made the lie not a lie! About 6 weeks later they moved her to another school. Good Riddance.

The story about the op using urinals with his pants all the way down got a chuckle out of me

I graduated high school in 2001 and they knew NOTHING about mental health. I was picked on almost daily by teachers, one in particular couldn’t go a single day without saying something horrible or sarcastic to or about me. Instead of asking if anything was wrong I got bullied. And I was a good kid, straight A’s until my mental health made them slip and never got detention for bad behavior, just things like being late or not bringing a note after an absence.

By the way IEP isn’t just disabilities. I am a IEP kid but it’s because I am advanced, so I have a different education plan that normal students.

Wouldn't reporting abuse and getting a child away from an abusive family be good for a schools reputation.

you can hear the sadness and empathy in his voice throughout the video :( it always pains me to hear these stories and i have a feeling of dread listening to them yet i always stick around for the entire video

Kids teach themselves how to cry???? Normal kids? I wouldn't know - I had a very abusive childhood and had plenty to cry about. Except I better NOT cry.

20:10 nothing enrages me more than this op It’s so obvious this kid is being sexually abused and what did they do? Send him to homeschool to isolate him with his abusive parents. It’s absolutely heart wrenching to see how little empathy op has for this poor child. I hope op feels the guilt weigh on their conscience forever.

While I get that many of these kids are really terrifying, I mostly just feel sorry for them. They're kids and most of them probably have or had some deep rooting issues that just get overlooked or ignored. And if the kid acts up they get send to a different class/school where it most likely will continue. Out of sight out of mind.

The kid who cuts bugs in half and looks for crayons to eat will have a great career in the Marine corps later on in life.

I could have been many of these children. Addiction, prison, crime. Almost 40. So much was ignored, in the 90s no one listened or cared. Guidence counselor once said his dad beat him w a broom so things werent that bad. I didnt have time to get to the bad parts. Lifes hard.

I never got attention growing up, and the only thing i really knew was discipline. My mom treated me like I was a trophy, never really giving me the emotional support i needed while only giving me physical attention and nothing else. I was never taught a lot of things either that a child should learn from their parents. I became a sneaky asshole in school. I would manipulate and use people to benefit myself and when i got into highschool it was more of the same stuff. I always knew how to talk my way out of trouble. When i turned 20, i went to therapy with the hopes of being diagnosed with ADHD so i could get on meds. Instead, after several sessions, i was diagnosed with ASPD + NPD (on top of ADHD as well as tendencies for BPD). Needless to say, i was taken aback and surprised all to hell. Lately ive been trying to make do with that knowledge and try to project something beneficial into the world. Have been a manipulator myself, i find it easy to point out things people may miss in relationships. If someone has problems with their s/o, they come to me. It helps me try to amend all the damage i did as a youth. Not sure where to go from here, but im taking it one day at a time.

6:12 Yes! Most children know how to make themselves cry or at the very least how to fake it. The difference is why they’re doing it. I taught toddlers up through the age of 5 and if they ever made themselves cry it’s because they didn’t want to do something, plain and simple. Take napping for example. I can see on a child’s face that they’re exhausted and need this nap, they know they’re tired, but they want to play so they cry to fight it and me. Some kids cry for attention, but they don’t usually make stuff up. Especially not things that drastic and it’s not constant and every day.

I remember my criminology teacher telling us she was only truly scared of 1 student in her life. He was massive for a 17 year old. He never talked and had that soulless look about him. Like the body was there but the soul wasn’t it was creepy according to her. She point blank refused to be alone in a room with him. When he finished school she felt relieved.

Please don't hate students!

taking away recess has been proven to make behavioral issues worse..... that one teacher just doesn't gaf.

Are teachers exempt from retaliation laws? Mandatory reporting ARE teachers responsibility, that means its part of their job. But they can get fired for doing their job?

Story 5 is one I relate to. I have a ton of scabs and red bumps on my arm and I have a tendency to pick at them over and over again. I always get told to stop, but I just can't stop.

"he had an evil smile all while making crying noises" ooh. oh. dont like that at all.

as someone who was abused to the point of developing DID this makes me I wonder what my teachers noticed about us... and if they did anything

that is enough internet for the day

14:29 Op's calendar math is correct. The next Wednesday after Christmas break was January 2nd. Yes, the 26th was a Wednesday, but that's part of the week of Christmas break.

Didn't expect an Angron of the World Eaters cameo in one of those stories

I'm pretty sure OP meant the second Wednesday after Christmas, not the very next day. Obviously the next day would have been December 26th, but the second Wednesday after Tuesday December 25th, would have been January 2nd. Perhaps the wording was a little unclear, but I knew what they meant and I'm pretty certain they know what they meant.

Not really affecting me now but back when I was in elementary school, my dad was a gang member + drug dealer and my mom was always at strip clubs etc... anywàys me and some of my other siblings were badly abused like them using needles and other stuff on us and always were locked in the dark of the basement (ofc not to go in school but most of the time..). I would always try to get signs to the teacher. Dont really remember exactly what I did though. The teachers always brushed the stuff off and claimed it was just fine not really suspecting things. If your in education dealing with children please dont ignore their behaviour like that

Once one has exhibited psychopathy they don’t get better.

I was sat next to a reg flag kid at school, it was really hard. I was terrified of him, but was told "you need to be an example for him to follow" any time I tried to complain. He threatened me all the time, broke my things, tried to hit me with a metal ruler (left holes in my folder as I used that as a shield). I hated that class and learned nothing, since I lived in fear instead of being able to focus. If you are a teacher, please don't force other kids to have to deal with this. You're the adult! Both of us would've been better off sitting alone - he wouldn't have been able to assault me/threaten to, and I could've focused. End of the day, I hope he did alright, he had a lot of problems going on behind the scenes and was being bullied I think, so I don't really blame him for this, but I do blame the adults for caring more about trying to get him to fit in, rather than for me to be safe. I really think he would've done better with 1:1 teaching, and its shit that no one provided that for him.

There was this kid that would bash his head into the bus window while cackling madly. He'd also constantly try and lick me , id tell him to stop then he'd start back up a minute later, for that whole school year it just became a neverending cycle of pushing him away and literally holding him back the whole bus ride home, I got yelled at when I tried to sit in a different seat. We were on a short bus and half the seats were empty. I was being punished by the angry driver by being put in the front seat with that kid. What was I in trouble for? Complaining about the sensory overload of the short bus... because I was special needs and the whole bus REAKED like that fresh weirdly sweet chemical smelling plastic and there was this kid that would just SCREAM. That on top of the kid literally trying to push himself on top of me and force his tongue in my mouth for half an hour EVERY DAY for that whole school year and id have really bad panic attacks from it all...the panic attacks were the reason I was on that bus to start with.

The comment about chronic scab picking being a “sign”: Was a school nurse, for years. My “frequent flyers who did this daily needed love. They did it for nurturing. I say that because after MANY days in a row I told one, “You don’t have to be bleeding to come see me. In the mornings, on your way to class, if you need/want a hug, stop and see me.”. The picking stopped. I did the same with the next, & the next… I had so many little babies coming for hugs, some it was every time they passed my office. 😭. I can’t think of them without crying. If I could have I would have taken them all. The “troubled kids” were my special visitors and any time they were missing, I always got a call from the office, “Is _____ down there with you?” Lol. They almost always were. Children seek out love, the problems start when they give up. Positive attention, understanding & acceptance cures many things.

When I was a freshman in high school, I had a classmate who said something "really funny" happened recently... "My mom hit my cat and she died." The whole class went silent and stared at her, until someone finally asked, "How is that funny?" She kind of started backpedaling, but couldn't really explain herself. I used to be friends with her, but I started getting a bad feeling from her after that. It sounds like my gut was right on the money, because she became a big bully later on. Despite claiming she was against bullying, she tried to start a cyberbullying trend against one girl for no reason. Luckily, I don't think many people joined in.

Not a teacher, but this reminds me of a kid back in elementary. She peed in her chair, and then started barking like a dog. She started crawling under the desks while our teacher had us move over towards the door. Never know what happened to that girl

regarding story 5: i have similar compulsions (not to that extreme but i do sometimes pick my skin until it bleeds) AND i get itchy enough with allergies to *want* to scratch underneath my skin, thank god i haven't (but i have accidentally broken my skin scratching too hard 😐). this kid definitely had something going on. it's near impossible to diagnose mental illnesses in children under like, 10ish (especially things like sociopathy and psychopathy, pretty much every kid shows socio/psycho behavior a few times) and i only have highschool ap psych level knowledge so i won't say much about it but it does definitely seem like he may have something.

When I was in elementary, I knew these twins and one of them would always do odd things (in my opinion what I thought was odd at 9 years old) but one time, he broke open a pen and started to basically drink the ink. I knew enough about ink to know it was not good. The only thing I thought he did it for was to die. I told the teacher that he was drinking the ink from his pen and I hadn’t seen either twin in years until about senior year, I saw the twin who did not break open a pen and turns out it’s all good now. But that’s my red flag story😅

Had this tenth grader at Cleveland South High School in 1996 I called Nature Boy because he disliked wearing a shirt. One day Cleveland police detectives showed up to examine my attendance book to determine whether or not he’d been in class on a given day. I told them he was marked present but that it might not hold up in court because I had one of the girls take attendance for me. When they got up to leave I asked them which squad they were with. One of them answered “homicide”.

I was working as a high school secretary. As I was walking down a small hallway that housed the offices of the social workers I saw a young man sitting on the floor waiting for his social worker. He was crying, then he started ramming the top of his head into the cinder block wall. I ran up to him to stop him, then ran to find his social worker. She took over from there.

7:16 Story 5 sounds a lot like Bar Jonah a cannibal child murder and sexual abuser.

I feel like they should have helped that kid who seems to be sociopathic, he has even less of a chance as an adult now. The mother definitely should have taken her child to therapy when she was noticing the fake crying. Edit: I'm actually so angry at the people posting this that didn't help these children. It's not that hard, see something say something.

I was literally picking the scab on my head when the scap story came on 😭

That background footage was freaking me out more than the stories in the video (the ones I've heard so far, I'm only seven minutes into the video). The background footage is pretty close to the kind of dream that you half-control, where you cramp up to e.g. try to stop a wheel or pendulum, just for it to go even faster the other way. And I felt my legs cramping up whenever that dang ball didn't get pushed down when my subconcious wanted it to, or when it almost got stuck somewhere and I tried to lift it up with my will power, fully knowing that my thoughts will not have any effect on the video. I couldn't even listen fully!

You can't blame the kid in story 25, bullying sucks.

I like being alive too much to be a teacher

Trauma doesn't affect everyone the same. There are surely typical signs of abuse, but of course some kids don't show them.

Some of these kids sound like they'd make horror movie villains blush

unrelated, but you should start putting the name of the game in the background in the description

Whats the game in the background, I'm kinda wanting to know because it looks like a good time waster.

Taking away recess has been factually proven to make bad behavior worse through multiple studies. Bro needs to update his teacher's education. (I have a master's degree in education)

Nope. While there might be a cute little nugget buried in the stories.... I noped out of this one after story 1. 😮

In one schòol, a student was behaving strangely. He really unnerved me. One day, he stole newborn rabbits. They were rescued. We all became very wary of him. Years later, he was convicted of murder.

Holy shit. That background looks really cool.

The letter opener kid wasn't a red flag, HE'S A GOTTDANG ROAD FLARE

41:33 'he used to crawl on the floor looking for crayons to eat, but that might just have been a kid thing' really REALLY drives the point of just how little these kids are

Story 2 - ooohhh that child is a sociopath… Jesus

Dang, now I know why my teachers hated me

Had teachers scream in my face because they thought I was talking. Could never imagine one ever asking me if I'm being abused and that's pretty fucking sad.

*couldn't *I'm *won't *didn't *doesn't *mom's *didn't *wasn't

i never get adds gon this channel

The number of sociopaths and serial killers that we're around every day is ridiculous now.

I’m a senior this year- last year a freshman or sophomore in band said that he was on parole bc he SA’d his little sister. I have to work with him in bassline this year and if he says anything else abt it I’m sending him to the director. I can’t deal with that shit

Story 46 thus far the only one that actually made my heart sting for sadness

I know I scared my elementary school teachers because of how blank I was. I remember literally choosing to cry once when I got hurt because I was curious. After a few minutes I decided it sucked and stopped 😅

What is the name of the game being played throughout the video?

Story 2: oh geez no, doing put him in a drama class. It wouldn't redirect his energy, he would just use the info to be a more skilled sociopath. Same reason you don't send people with full blown malignant narcissism to therapy or psychology classes. They take that info to get more skilled at messing with people.

I think the brian one was the dude thought it was funny to be able to cry at will and it ended up being useful later on

The audio is weirdly small

What game is playing in the background?

Brian being a drug dealer really makes sense,heres how:- sociopath-->grow to 18 y/o-->get a job-->get fired-->snort that pack-->love it-->decide to make other people taste this "beauty"(ofc drugs are the worst thing ever im just making it how he thinks in his mind,so dont think i like drugs,they are disgusting)

Omg what game is this in the background?

I don't think I'll be on here but damn I know I scared a LOT of teachers when I was younger... I've gotten a lot better as I've gotten older and have been graduated since 2012 but man my K-5 was nuts I threw more red flags than a soccer referee

Story 23 ‐ there are those that just WILL NOT BE HELPED BY THIS! If you can not understand this, DO NOT TEACH *ESPECIALLY* SPECIAL NEEDS!!!

I attended a school with a girl, who nobody really liked. She was quiet, reserved, and had very little interaction with other people, besides a couple of girls. that became less of an occurrence after one moved. I hardly ever saw her express emotions, either. (TW: BLOOD) One day, in science class, we had to dissect a cow heart. There were about eight long tables in the room, and she was in the back near a group of boys. I'm not sure what happened to set her off, but after sitting there doing nothing for a while, I saw the scariest smile I have ever seen on anybody. Then, she began laughing as she stabbed a small bit of the heart she had dissected, over and over again. I have never heard somebody laugh like that. It was psychotic. The boys at the table were rightfully freaked out. Eventually the teacher came over to see what the fuss was about, and the girl just put her head in her arms. I should probably mention, that I know this girl was bullied. And as for her home life, I heard from somebody else that it certainly wasn't pleasant. And I, along with everybody else, knew she self harmed. One of the things I noticed about her, was she really liked animals. From rescuing a lizard from a group of kids, to releasing a bird out of a window, and saving a ladybug. She wasn't heartless. I truly don't know what her case was, but wherever she is now, I really hope she got help.

I wanna know what the game in the background is!! It looks so fun and pretty! Also these kids are wild…

Bruh, I had a fucking IEP and I was sometimes scared shitless of other folks who had IEP’s. IEP or no you can still be scary as fuck.

What is the game going on in the background? It looks really interesting.

Story 10: beginning of that sounded like the twins in my mom's classroom who had FAS. Their mother did drugs and alcohol while pregnant. She was also the school trustee. Tons of fun to deal with, considering everything.

In my school we the kids with anger issues would be forced in a room with a guy with 0 special ed experience and did not learn anything despite this im doing good in home school

I used to know a kid that once innocent but has since gone to juvie and talks about 18+ stuff he was in seventh grade

What game is this?

It's 5am and I just got done sobbing to a mha ep of dabi and now I'm watching this so I can distract myself 🫡

I was one of those nothing kids and my parents were poor so only option was do nothing and see what happens and the only thing I can say is dont upset them like at all. It may be difficult but it will build until a meltdown happens

It's surprising how smart a two year old can be. We told our son he could get a toy if he could start pooping on the potty. Well I caught him in the bathroom using a piece of toilet paper (this part blew my mind that a 2 year old would be germ conscience) to pick his crap out of his pullup up and put it in the toilet. If I hadn't caught him halfway through doing this I probably would have believed him. 😅

16:48 this reminded of the time in middle school a boy held a knife he made of tinfoil to my neck in art class. Just snuck up behind me. I think I was just confused when it happened. He was a weird dude. Has done worse things but that was all after middle school. Got a criminal record as a minor for stabbing someone with a pencil because they either insulted or hit on his female cousin (I can’t remember). It could be a lie though too. He, again, was weird. Yet oddly nice to me at times

I was a pre-k teacher for awhile but we also watched elementary schoolers before school started, one kid who was known for making trouble came up to me one day and said "Miss mero are you a mommy?" "No I'm not" "Good, I hope you lose your baby" His mom didn't care

story 24 sounds ALOT like my old school

Bruh I always pick my scabs AND somtimes not wven notice

Off topic, what is the background video? Is it from a game or just a mood video? Edit: It looks like Exo One. Looks really nice!

13:05 highly highly illegal to get fired. OP should have known this.

Story 26 is just utterly horrifying and disgusting.

I think it’s so funny that dudes all like “I feel so bad for them. I hope everything’s better now. I wanna know what happened to the poor abused child. “. No you don’t. You don’t care. No one does. Cause it’s most likely the same addict that you straight up judge for being broken addicted and/or homeless.
