Nine-year-olds in U.S. plotted to tie up and hurt teacher

[nittanyalum]

This sounds suspiciously like an episode of MTV's show about high school pranks. There was one about a bunch of senior guys that taped their teacher to his chair, I can't remember all the details, but the guys actually spent a night in jail and almost got expelled before graduation.

The way MTV is these days, parents of kids under about 16 or so would probably be wise to "block" it so their young ones can't watch some of the crap they show in the afternoon & early evenings... (not blaming the OP incident directly on MTV, just wandered into a tangential thought of my own)

hijack - My parents didnt allow me to watch MTV when I was in high school - and that was '95-'99. Mom had a problem with the condom commericials, and the imposters body spray commercials that had the naked model with censor bars bleeping out her boobs and tush.

I can recall a school (chartered) in my city that condones and still enforces spanking of sorts. Nothing more than a good swat on the back of the hand of bottom with a ruler, but if/when I ever have children I'd send them there.

Public schools would be better if this method were still implemented, but alas, our country is full of people who believe "time-out" is just punishment. I was beat senseless and I think I turned out all right in the long run.

I honestly laughed at this story. It is a truly sad commentary on our society that 3rd graders can put together a rudimentary murder/terrorism plot against a teacher.
