While suspending him for ten days is entirely inappropriate, I think some sort of discipline is not out of line. If the kid really mouthed off after being asked to hang up, that's wrong. The teacher had no way of knowing who he was talking to. He should have been mature enough to say something like "I'm sorry - I'm talking to my mom who's fighting in Iraq. If you could make an exception, I'd appreciate it. I'll be done in a few minutes." The reaction he gave was that of a 10 year old, not a 17 year old.
