I've gotten hit with a text book before. I wiill give her the fact that is was an accident, but she didn't have a very good grip on her emotions. It wasn't even me who pissed her off. Some kid was taking too many tissues (one a day) so she talked to him outside. When she came back in she stormed over to her desk, grabbed, the book, whipped her body around, and let the book slip from her fingertips. The book flew about 3-5 feet and hit me in the leg.
Although that isn't necassarily off-topic I will now state something a little more related.
Today's system creates bratty children. I relaized early on I could pretty much do whatever I wanted. I would walk out of detention, and ditch classes all the time. Then you get disciplined with more detentions/suspensions. If I didn't go to the firsts ones why would I bother going toevery one after that? If someone had hit me though I wouldn't have behaved so terribly.
My behavior only did change when I got sent to a school in Utah where they were allowed to restrain children. They made it a point to hire big men. I realized they could actually force me into punsihment then so I decided to behave. I know now what can happen to me if I act up again so I try my hardest to follow the rules now.
Even though I advocate for physical means of discipline I think it needs to be used correctly. You should be able to force a person into a punsihment as their consequence for their actions. However, you may not abuse them. You can easily restrain someone without hurting them.
If this happens I think, maybe, that we could have a more civilized, respectable youth.
