No, they need jail sentences. Theft is theft. Why should we pay them more to rob our children blind. Teacher took my daughter’s cell phone earlier this year. Should she have had in class? No. But the teacher has no right to confiscate something that I paid for. The teacher did not return the item to my daughter after school. Told her that her parents would have to pick it up. It was Friday. My daughter was without her cell phone the entire weekend. I told the teacher if she pulled a stunt like that again I would file charges. Then I deactivated the phone for 2 weeks as punishment to my daughter for taking it to class in the first place. Funny thing, my daughter wasn’t using the phone when it was confiscated. It was in her pocket. The display activated and could be seen through her pocket. My other question is why was the teacher looking at my daughter’s pocket in the first place. Had the teacher been male I would have had her fired. I have no simpathy for these teachers. Most of whom, in the words of Carl the Janitor “took a teaching position, ‘cause you thought it’d be fun, right? Thought you could have summer vacations off…and then you found out it was actually work…and that really bummed you out.” They need tio stop taking out their frustations on our kids. Growing up is hard enough without having to deal with a constant deluge of crap from on high. Kids have their entire working lives to get crap poured on them.
