Reason #239 to Homeschool

When first grader, Lamya Cammon, didn’t stop twirling a braid in her fingers, her teacher called her to the front of the class and cut that braid right off her head. The teacher was fined $175 for ‘disorderly conduct’ and apologized to the girl’s mother. According to the article, the mother got the apology, and an excuse:
“But I was frustrated”, the teacher said.
The frustrated teacher who publicly humiliated the little girl, making her cry in front of her whole class, is still working in the school.

Ridiculous! I'm sure the teacher frustrates her students. Maybe they should be allowed to hack her hair off too.

Well if they're frustrated, I mean, they can't help it then!

That's horrible! She should have at least been suspended for a good amount of time.
