Mace your teacher, brehettes.

Thread is legit embarrassing.

It is in fact 100% fine (legally speaking) for a teacher to confiscate a cell phone.

And yes, before people ask, I looked this up specifically for TN.

TLR sits around all day complaining about Gen Z....look at this thread. Grown men and women don't know what they're talking about and are giving their children crash dummy level advice.

"Nobody can take your phone!"....

Like I said, it's embarrassing.

Wtf is in that phone? Going to that extreme is craaazy! Face all over the internet for macing You teacher over a phone smh. It’s never that serious.

TikTok app. shyt is making more addicts than crack did out here. Ever tried to steal crack from a crackhead? Of course not because you know better.

In some cases it's not that simple. You got kids who parents can't pick them up because they don't have a vehicle. Some parents work in the suburbs nowhere near the school. Emergency situations those kids have to get on the bus. Seen it a billion times.

like I stated earlier during transition periods there is ample time for students to check their phones…when you‘re in the classroom they need to be put away under lock and key.

The way he dropped to his knees

Stop taking their phones though. It’s not worth it.

Good on her.

The phone doesn't belong to him...why is he taking it?

because he is teaching a class and she is causing a distraction with her phone probably.

i personally think there needs to be something in the middle for this to be resolved, it can't be up to the teachers.

Hopefully this idiot ass girl is expelled? Why are these kids so disrespectful nowadays? You dont want learn what the teacher is teaching then dont, but go somewhere else if you want to be on your phone.

This is a kid in highschool/elementary school, i promise you she had nothing important happening in her life where she needed to act like this over a phone.

No I need to be able to communicate with my kids.

This a lame ass excuse

That transition time may not be for another 55 minute though. That could make a difference in an emergency. 2ndly, some teachers use technology in their classrooms for learning (i.e. Kahoot!) to access where their kids are at on lessons.

Maybe that is a sign of the addiction quality of cell phones that it seems to set off violent reactions in kids when taken. Maybe the underlying issue here is that cell phones are almost like cigs or other drugs and honestly that is a bit concerning imo. Especially among kids.

no doubt I think you can tell who in this thread truly addicted to them shyts too

shyt I am too to some degree, but I also know when it's time to put the phone down and do work/focus on what I need to focus on.

The simple solutions that should appease everyone is just simply kick the kids on their phone out of school. No sending them to the office, make their parents come get them or have police remove them while it counts as an absence.

Kids get to keep "their" property and schools can enforce discipline.

 

[Paper Boi]

Easy. A phone box inside the class. All phones go in the box on silent. If you have your phone on you, you are removed from class, serve detention and receive a $25 fine. Can't graduate unless you pay your fines. Can't transfer unless fine is paid.

I like something like this.

If it's not a fine, if you violate you're removed from the class for the semester, given a nonpassing grade and given a study/detention period for that period for the remainder of the semester and then you have to retake the class in the next semester/summer if you want that failing grade off your GPA/if it's a graduation requirement course.

I think you'll see a lot less people acting up if there are actual consequences. it might be a shytshow at first, but eventually the kids will adjust or their parents will make them adjust.

and if the phone is more important to the kid and their parents than their grades/graduating then their punk asses can drop out, get a GED and play on their phone all day at home.

People seem to be more concerned their kids have phones than learning in the classroom. Ridiculous...
Maybe I'm crazy but I feel when I was growing up, these rules and boundaries as far as the role of teachers and students were much more widely understood. Maybe this is my mindstate but I can't imagine raising quality kids with this perspective some people have these days.

Also, the proliferation of cell phones and tech among children is making them dumber imo. Doesn't bode well for the future.


shyt like this is just sad

Schools

She was wrong. All of the suggestions sound ideal but I wonder what are the chances they actually get implemented or is this even an issue to schools.

My cousin is currently in high school and she always tells me some of her teachers allow students to use their phones when there is down-time(), to use the calculator(they don't have physical anymore?), or it's somehow incorporated with the lesson. Idk if it's a lack of curriculum or just a new generation but half of what they do now is so bizarre.

We had some pushover teachers that would let us do almost everything EXCEPT use a phone. Even the cool teachers would somehow find a way to entertain us but it never included our phones.
