With all due respect. There are many ways of looking at this situation. My children are homeschooled because there is a lack of attention when it comes to teachers that abuse children mentally. I know this is not the situation in every case. However, my child was abused by a teacher through the school year and part of the next even though she wasn't my child's teacher the next year. This teacher has horror stories all over Rhea county. She was never disciplined for her actions, even though I had a conference meeting with her and her boss. As I said, I know there are parents who don't care. Children need to know responsibility. They also need to see teachers disciplined as needed. Alot of folks think because a teacher is a teacher, she or he is God. I just believe there are different situations that need to be handled in different ways. Thank you.
