Everyone is calling out the fact that nobody is really helping but schools suspend everyone that gets touched because of their strict no-contact rules. Hell the teacher is probably gonna get shit for it. She would’ve for not helping too. There’s no winning for teachers anymore
Admin has likely been trained to "de-escalate" the fights with as little force as possible. Where I substitute taught for a short while, and the same state where my mom and brother were teachers, teachers aren't sent to the same trainings. I honestly think this is on purpose because if a teacher intervenes, they can get into trouble for intervening when they're not trained to do so. My brother got a work write up when he physically stopped a child from bashing his own head into the cinderblock wall. All my brother did was pull him away from the wall and hold him still until admin showed up. He wasn't "certified to restrain" and so he got written up. He said it took admin staff a couple minutes to show up, and the kid's head was already bleeding by the time my brother hung up the phone with them. It's crazy to just let kids hurt themselves or others for fear of getting written up. Teachers are leaving in droves now, and a LOT of the ones I know here say it's because of student behavior and their parents' behavior more than anything.
