No one is disputing that. However, those same teachers close their eyes and their class room doors to the sight of a child being dragged down the hall by his or her arms. Another example a teacher will grab a child by the upper arms hard enough to leave an impression of their fingers on a childs flesh. When a teacher who sees this is asked if they have any knowledge about this they lie. They are just as guilty of abuse and bullying as the actual perpetrators. Let's not complain about parents who choose to homeschool if we are guilty of ignoring the obvious problems in our public schools. There are many teacher who are academically wonderful.

And a lot of them are the teachers!
