Student Suspended for Calling Teacher Fat Douchebag on Facebook

Wait, hold on, did the original article say "suspended" him? "suspended"? What is that, like three days? Sheesh, BFD. So he got his feelings hurt, so he had to do a little extra work to catch up, a little perspective here, people. Those things rising out of the back lawn are ot mountains.

When you are suspended you are not allowed to make up whatever work you missed.....so you would be getting 0s on all the graded material during your suspension.

Maybe at schools you attended, but that's not the rule of every school.

It certainly wasn't at the schools I taught at. I would have to get work together and send it to the office so mom or dad could pick it up.

Simple Soloution: Avoid FB like the thinly-disguised, data-farming, advert infested, parasitic, life sapping waste of time that it is.

Now the shoe's on the other foot...

I thought this story was applicable to the discussion as many have asked what would happen if a teacher did the same thing.

FEASTERVILLE, Pa. – A high school English teacher in suburban Philadelphia who was suspended for a profanity-laced blog in which she called her young charges "disengaged, lazy whiners" is driving a sensation by daring to ask: Why are today's students unmotivated — and what's wrong with calling them out?

Interesting.... I kinda agree with the teacher.
