Photo of teacher taping mask to student's face causes outrage in North Penn School District

Teachers have no authority to put their uninvited hands on students, at any time or for any reason, but they've become emboldened by a radical leftist "social" agenda that now permeates public schools.
Weird because it's conservatives who have been super mad for decades now that those "radical leftists" made it so teachers can't touch their students.
 
What should be the punitive consequences for the teacher's actions? Or do you think she was in the right to touch the student's face and tape a mask to it?

I'd love to be a fly on the wall at the school board meeting where there may be a planned protest by parental group, North Penn Stronger Together.
If that were my kid, I would demand the teachers immediate firing and arrest with my lawsuit against the teacher and school for a million dollars for assault and intentional infliction of emotional distress. That is insane what a teacher thinks they can do to assault a student.
 
Pure nonsense. Ignorance.


Vaccinations are required for children to attend school in Pennsylvania. The new regulations took effect at the start of the 2017/18 school year.
The subject is about masks, not vaccines.

LOL this has caused you that much emotional distress, has it? I'm so sorry, let's get you to a safe space.
 
Do you think the teacher decided to just do this randomly for no reason? On one student? Is that your actual opinion or just the opinion you are pretending to have?
Did you read the cited article or not?
 
Same place it always is? Selectively missing?

The hypocrisy is at appalling levels.

Remember the Vaccine?

Oh, you will NEVER get covid and give you 100% protection...

Oh, you will likely not get covid.....

Oh, you can still get covid but not get sick and not spread it...

Oh, you can still get covid but at least you won't die.
 
...does not represent the universal values that the North Penn School District strives to instill in both our students and staff...
Lol - well I should hope not.

Jeez, I remember when this was satire.

More "Binary Theory of Risk" from the right wingers LMAO
 
What is it you think I have missed?
"After an immediate investigation, it was determined that while the incident was isolated and no malice was intended, the actions of the teacher were entirely inappropriate and unacceptable, no matter the context."

Don't let the above stop you from blaming the child though. Just assume he did something to deserve what he got.

Ahh, there's your problem. Your reading comprehension is dogshit. Not new information for me.

I didn't say the kid deserves what he got, in fact I specifically called out what the teacher did as wrong. If the child was refusing to wear a mask, remove them from the classroom for discipline.

But you dodged a question: Do you think the teacher just randomly decided to do this for no reason?
 
Holy Christ. Overreaction central over here.

I'm capable of reading just fine.


Your first response to the situation was to blame the child.

Yes, I made an inference that the child was refusing to wear the mask.

Do you think this was an unreasonable assumption? Do you have an alternate hypothesis or are you just whining because the word "mask" appears in a story and that triggers you?

GIven she felt it was appropriate to tape up the mask on the kid's face, it's pretty clear she's a full on vax cultist.

Even if your rabid partisan nonsense were accurate, it's not logical to expect she would tape the mask to the face of one child for no reason. If she were a "full on vax cultist," why didn't she do it with every child?

I prefer not to automatically assume the child was problematic. There may have been a problem with the fit of the mask. How many times have you observed adults having to adjust their masks because they slip down below their noses?
 
Did the kid get hurt? I am having trouble seeing how tape can hurt a kid.

It is not as if she stapled or hot glued it on the kid.
