"Mom says, it's not a psychological problem." That's when I stopped the video. So, the mom is a psychologist now. I don't know what rage this kid has, but parent denial or contribution are a definite part of it! I used to be school bully and what I got at home had a lot to do with it along with denial.
Big deal. I never got paddled and never forged a signature.
But that doesn't get to the point of the previous post.
It doesn't, but the paddling part does. I am glad you didn't get paddled, sounds like you had patient parents; good ones and you were probably a good kid for the most part. Kids do get paddled at least a good majority and I think all in all it has a mostly bad result. I have been on the receiving end and the giving end and have some anger and regrets about the incidences.

You won't find many men in prison who say ya know, I was never physically disciplined as a kid. Exactly the opposite.
We don't know what happened. For all we know he could have started beating on the cops so that's why they cuffed him.
Seems he had no problem beating on the teacher.
Cuffs would be safer for him rather than the cops physically trying to restrain him.
And teachers today cannot touch students, not even in their own defense otherwise they are in even bigger trouble.

You wont find many older people who were drugged to keep them docile in a classroom environment. You wont find many that even knew anyone who was. This is because both our parents and our teachers punished us, and we easily learned how to act.
There is a difference between discipline and outright physical abuse.

I'm not talking about older people. I'm talking about 20 somethings in prison.
They won't tell you they spend much time in the "think it over" chair.

Im not talking about a 'think it over' chair... I'm talking about people raised by parents with a 'spare the rod, spoil the child' mindset. It doesn't mean they punched us out or anything, but when reason failed, they got and kept our attention, and none of us ended up in prison, or sentenced to a life taking Ritalin and other behavior oriented drugs.
Ummm, yeah, for the teacher who was attacked, punched, knocked to the ground, and had her hair pulled by your out of control son.
You picked up on the same sad irony I did. His use of the word "justice" reminds me of a movie quote:
"You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means."
And I agree with those who suggest the parents need to be looked into... Where does a 7 year old boy learn that it is OK to physically abuse a woman? Maybe from Dad?

More likely from the Mom who has always let him do anything he wants as long as he doesn't bother her. It's not the 1950's anymore. How many kids actually grow up with an active live-in Dad these days? If you recall, Mom called him "my love" as the cops took him away.
