We all know how frustrating it can be to be a teacher. I think every single teacher should be permitted one time in their career to just go off on a kid who has shown a pattern of disruptive behavior. Throw a chair at them, punt them across the classroom, yell the most obscene string of profanity at the kid- anything that doesn’t cause permanent disability, but it could definitely be something that hurts the kid.

But once they do it, they use up that one chance for the rest of their career and they can never do it again.

Why? It allows the teacher to vent their growing frustration. After they do it, they can soothe their frustrations by dissociating and daydreaming about how good it felt to put that obnoxious kid in their place. And finally, kids will always live in fear of being a little shit, else a teacher might decide to use their single-use wailing credit on them.

I think this would only serve to improve the education system and the growing issues of student discipline.
