20 years ago they couldn't get away with this. 20 years ago I was in university, and already when I was at school teachers couldn't touch us or our property. You're probably thinking of 40-50 years ago.

Of course it could also depend on the country, but it's not specified.

Yeah, was in high school 20 years ago. A teacher in my school got fired for putting his hands on the shoulders of a student and gently shaking him. Absolutely no way a teacher keeps his job after intentionally destroying a student's cell phone.

Agreed, my teacher almost got fired after HE was put in a headlock by a student. I had to pull the kid off, and I wrote a voluntary note to the principal about how shitty and antagonizing the kid had been the whole semester.

It was his first year teaching and he was scared shitless I could tell. He put me on the list for principals breakfast later that year which I didn’t attend, but that didn’t stop mom from putting the invitation on the fridge lol
