We love how one educational spokesperson says this is “not the regular thing that would happen in school.” We don’t know what school they went too, but spontaneous wrestling matches broke out on a daily basis at my school. We really feel that the teacher shouldn’t have been pressured to resign, considering the fact that even the kid in the video and his parents don’t want to press charges. Regardless, if he teaches again, he might want to avoid wrestling with his students, or ban camera phones. We just can’t believe that the police are trying to prosecute the teacher, there are many worse educators out there.
