I didn’t say discipline, I said punishment. There’s a big difference.

We’ve got to pay more attention to who we’re hiring to teach our children, especially those that are only 4 years old!

You’re a real-life superhero. Thank you for all that you do for those kids :)

About 2 years ago I took a job as a pre-K teacher at a daycare located on a college campus when I was trying to find a full-time elementary school teaching job. The place was an absolute nightmare. They had gone through multiple teachers in the course of a few months (the most recent 2 they put on “administrative…

Seriously, why is it so taken for granted that in every school, there is at least one teacher who clearly just does not like children??? It’s so common that it feels a bit silly to call it a cliché, rather than a simple categorization.

...all the more reason to stop doing a job you’re clearly ill-suited for? Maybe they could become police, sounds more up their alley.

There are PLENTY of other ways to teach a person how to respect and respond to people in positions of authority. Zip tying a FOUR YEAR OLD’s hands behind their backs is most certainly not in the top 100 choices anyone should make.

I feel the problem is more that his school and parents shielded him from any consequences. He’s been told over and over that he’s special, that getting into good schools shows he has good character. I bet he doesn’t see his underage drinking as at all the same as the drinking of a public school kid from a poor neighbor…

This isn't lazy it's cruel. Premeditated. PreK classrooms don't generally have zip ties in them, they brought them in to do this. They should be examined, not just fired but subjected to testing to know if they're a danger to society.

This is despicable. I’m a PreK teacher and as such, I’m usually the first experience children have with a formal school setting. It is PARAMOUNT that that experience is one filled with a sense of security, belonging, trust, and love. In addition, punishment for “bad” behavior DOES NOT WORK with children that young. It…

You’re fucked. Stay away from children. And people in general. Next.

What the fuck are you talking about? They’re four year olds you sick bastard.

Can we do a thing where people who hate their jobs go find different jobs?

A school culture that allows it? This would be unthinkable where I work. Anyone who did anything like this would be walked off school grounds immediately and there would be investigations by children’s services and police. You’d lose your job and probably your teaching license.

On the one hand, what is wrong with you America? On the other hand, maybe someone should’ve zip tied Brett Kavanaugh’s hands back in the day.

The strong things stay with you; I remember how wonderful my pre-k teacher was and a few of the wonderful things that happened in that classroom. These kids will forever have this memory :(

It’s easier. They’re lazy teachers, this is the easy route. They didn’t think they’d get caught.

I can’t even imagine what would compel anyone — far less a pre-school teacher — to zip-tie a four year old child’s hands behind their back. That’s just insanity.

Back in my day, we got waterboarded and we liked it!

I think it was sort of sexist as used in the ad they flagged, but that ad didn’t seem like the typical version of that meme. Usually it’s almost a version of the meme where the man in the desert goes the wrong way- the offended woman is something sensible and the other woman is something frivolous aka something like…
