"(She) took him and stood him in front of his classmates this week, asked every single child to tell Alex why we don't like him... in his words, tell Alex why we hate him," she explains.Which tells me that the teacher has some pretty severe issues if they are teeing off on a flippin' 5 year old boy and subjecting him to public ridicule and humiliation.
After having each child ridicule the boy, she says the teacher continued belittling him.
I would say that the teacher needs to be fired and possibly brought up on child abuse charges for what she encouraged to happen. I would guess she was trying to "shame" him into behaving better but what she did was so over the top and deeply, deeply wrong that the lesson is completely lost in the assault on his ego and person.
I expect the parents of the little boy are meeting with lawyers to see if there's a lawsuit in all of this and I'd bet dollars to donuts that there is.
Rule #179 is Don't Single Out a 5 Year Old
