This is very sad news, and even more sadly, not at all surprising.
How do we (as a society) watch people with obvious mental health issues implode before our eyes - or worse yet, use it as entertainment?

That sucks, but if it isn’t actively damaging your child it could be a learning experience of it’s own.
I had some clashes with teachers (I went to elementary in the 70's and came from a very progressive family while living in a very regressive area, so it was fertile ground for clashes), and my Mom always explained…
