  1. Wondering if the teacher is a sista

  2. If parents taught there brat children how to behave and do what the teacher tells you to do, then this wouldn't happen

  3. 1:11 Two sides to every story: The truth*, and the *lie. My guess is the child isn't saying what got him into trouble, but the teacher is also covering his butt, and he knows no matter what that child did to aggravate him (the teacher), he is in the wrong. There are better ways of discipline than humiliation.

  4. About law suit…..there is 2 sides

  5. If I was the parent that teacher would've been in the hospital today and maybe also the principal. Even if it's not my child I'm going to still want to put hands on an adult treating a child like this. Who finds this funny specially a teacher saying I was just playing whaaaat?? Oh yea Texas

  6. I do not condone this but if you have ever taught, you have to tell students 100 times to stop getting up. It is really irritating when they test your patience because they know there are no consequences.

    With the stress teachers are under I'm not surprised one of them might snap.

  7. I'm sure the little angel wasn't misbehaving

  8. That teacher needs to be fired, what gives her the right to do something like that. And for the school to make a remark as to there are 2 sides to a story is just mind blowing.

  9. I'm thankful my kids are finished with school I hope she is in Jail

  10. Black kids are the worst, but don't tape them to chairs. That's extreme.

  11. I'm an Education Assistant, I will not stand by and watch this 😠 I would record for evidence, go to the principal, give evidence and give parents this too..nope..I wouldn't care if I lost my job, no one does this to a child..especially when I'm there..this is terrible..gets me angry how Education professional gets away with this..

  12. We drop our children off at school thinking they are safe.
    But these teachers are abusive and need to find a different job,or better yet get their teaching license taken away from them and would never be allowed to get near a child again.
    You do not hurt our babies and then get away with it because there is "two sides of the story",he is a child you are the adults act like it!
    So teach but don't abuse our children.
    I wander what she would do if this happened to her children or child…blessings to the family.

  13. The woke need to go!!!!!!

  14. This kid was probably out of control and needed to be subdued.
    Typical search of a lawsuit.

  15. Another major lawsuit a child taped to a chair and hit lawsuit. It doesn’t matter if he had an outburst he’s a freakin kid. This better not be racial or it’s gonna get nasty

  16. If that teacher did that to that child. She doesn't deserve to be a teacher🤬

  17. Dear teachers.. Think about your poor choices before you make them. Even if them kids are unruly!

  18. sounds like a teacher needs a good beatn'

  19. There are two sides- good and evil.

  20. You don't do it to an animal either. What was a jacked up comment

  21. She should be arrested!

  22. That teacher is going to get her karma and she deserves to get fired and never allowed to be able to teach again and if the boys mother wasn't in her right mind she would probably regulate on the teacher. I 🙏🙏 that the little boy and his mother get righteous justice.

  23. It seems like there covering up for this crooked lying teacher! Teacher needs to be put I JAIL!! that's a felony child abuse!!

  24. The school district police have a conflict of interest, being employees of the district. The teacher admitted to the mother that she did it and said she was "just playing" when setting him up to be bullied and triggering a migraine. Yet the school administrators are deeply mystified as to whether it happened, seeking "2 sides" in a situation with extremely unequal power and responsibility. This teacher is at best too lacking in skills to teach children. There's no excuse to do this.

  25. If this Teacher did this she should be fired. She should never teach again anywhere. I would sue the School.

  26. To obtain financial freedom, one must either be a business owner, an investor or both, generating passive income, particularly on a monthly basis.

  27. That teacher should be fired! I never allowed anyone to discipline my child. That's the parents' job, not the teachers. My son turned out perfectly fine. He was a police officer/county sheriff. I begged him to quit his job. Now, he is a supervisor working with kids who have Autism. I honestly believe that what the teacher did is child abuse.

  28. Sounds made up like the African-American girl that made up the story about how 3 caucasian boys forcibly cut her dreadlocks, but the truth as always will be revealed in time.

  29. That why when see students attack teachers I don't have no remorse

  30. I and my Sons went to Catholic School, and you would get more than taped to a chair if you were not paying attention, or carrying on. Nothing but chaos is the order of the day in Public Schools in Pennsylvania where Black Kids are the majority, and heaven help the Teacher or Administrators if they tried to create a bit of Discipline while trying to Teach. Baltimore, Chicago same thing. Now they are crying because the children are going to Community College and cannot read properly. So it winds up they are their own worst nightmare.

  31. United states is getting wild and backwards. good to know they know stories have 2 sides, the victim and the abuser.. and the victim is 10yro while the abusive teacher is getting protected by school autorities. The 10yro victim should be protected

  32. the amount of special violence/abuse that black children face by teachers needs to be talked about more

  33. That teacher needs to be FIRED

  34. Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today..

  35. Thats one cure for ADHD. 😋Also, how does a child know what a migrane is?

  36. One daughters best friend is a Public School Teacher of Emotionally Disturbed 5th graders. 7 yrs ago one child actually broke her arm. YES some children have very bad behavior in schools. But you DO NOT further the problems by abusing the child.

  37. My son's school had a time out room they had to put my son in at times. Of course another parent complained and they stopped utilizing it which was not helpful for my child at all. Point being; my son needed it. I am all for restraining a child who needs it. Tape didn't hurt this boy but I am interested in what the teacher has to say and what video footage would show.

  38. "Two sides to every story." Yeah, I am sure we should hear Hitler out about why he did the Holocaust.

  39. The sad truth is: many of your brats act like little savages from The Lord of the Flies. YOU, the parent, don't teach them any manners, you send them to school simply because it's free baby sitting, and then you have the utter gall to insist they be treated like royal princes and princesses.

  40. Cameras in classrooms please

  41. I don't care what he did, there's no reason to tape a kid to a chair. You go and get help or send him to the office.

  42. This is bad but also allowing drag queens into school is also a problem.

  43. BIG DEAL wooosy kids these days, vexacious litigants
    "Why is their 2 sides to every story." There can be a dozen sides to the story if that many witness are there.
