She obviously does not have control of her classroom.  Kids text.  I wouldn't want it in my classroom, either, but I wouldn't have escalated the incident to involve the police.  This teacher will never regain the respect of her students.  Fear?  Yes.  Respect?  No.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Annette]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 18th 2009 7:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hidden in the butt?? no... that was a gross exageration for a sensational headline!   It was stuck in the back of her jeans... right at the waistline... I've seen people tuck all kinds of stuff right in at the waistline...the band sort of helps hold things.... <br><br>Why call the police because the kid texts?  Just send her to the principals office... write her up..give a demerit..if that is used....  Tell her to stop..(which she obviously did)  then shut up...I am beginning to think teachers just don' t know how to handle situations well...   and that this escalated way beyond what was necessary...<br><br>now days... the zero tolerance has gotten a bit rediculas....  I can remember back around  92.... sub teaching..(babysitting) a Art Class, in Wright Co. MO.. high school.. one of hte damn kids actually chopped a hunk of wood off the table, heaved it across the room, striking me right at the temple...cutting my head... think anything was done?? hell no...that little bitch got by with is... ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[betty]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 18th 2009 7:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ya, it has gotten bad. Although most teachers i know would just tell the student to get out of there class.<br><br>One rule that make me mad with my school with ZT is that if your in a fight, you cant defend yourself. like if someone just came up to you and started to hit you you just have to stand there and take it, if you fight back you go to the cops with them. <br><br>Damn, at my school if someone did that to the sub they would get suspended right there and then for like a week or too. and it would go to the cops for assault.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sidewinder12s]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 18th 2009 7:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[Reading comprehension classes might be in order for you Betty,<br> The article clearly says it was stashed in the CRACK of her butt....... must be quite a butt!<br> Kids should NOT be allowed to have/use cellphone in a classroom setting PERIOD. Sounds like this was NOT the first time this confrontation happened with this student. She was insubordinate, disruptive, disrespectful to the teacher and other students, lied....need I say more?<br> With the classroom climate these days and the FACT any time a teacher attempts disipline they are "called on the carpet" for it at the very least, I don't blame the teacher for involving the authorities. The teachers are simply "CYA" ( covering their a$$es) when they call in backup like this. It sounds as if this student had a history and just how many time was the teacher suppose to "warn" this PUNK?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gary]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 19th 2009 11:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[well  Gary... I wouldn't know IF or how many times the student was warned... the article did not say...<br><br>as for if it were  "crack" or "butt"   no problem in comprehension...(Since you are SO picky)  the headline said  "BUTT"  not crack....  obviously even the writer was not able to "get it staight"!  <br>perhaps you need a good purgative to loosen up the attitude some! lol]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[betty]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 19th 2009 5:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well Betty,<br> Maybe you should try to get your information from the "article" instead of the "title". Try reading the full police report posted in teh article supplied by the link in the article..... Smoking Gun was the link provided.... might open up your narrow little mind......but I doubt it would actually, being the realist that I am.<br> As for ME? being pricky.......need to take a closer look at the snotty crap you write....... but I'd expect no less from the children of today Arrogant Ignorant, and disrespectful.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gary]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2009 11:02AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[Garty    perhaps you should have looked at the headline]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[betty]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 25th 2009 7:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[ Rude and arrogant because I read the entire article along with the supplied supplimental information before I comment? <br> Rude and arrogant because I expect others to educate themselves BEFORE commenting?<br> Or is it just YOU and the few others that chose to be ignorant of the facts while making uniformed emotional rants rather than informed discussions of a topic who think this way?<br> Go ahead and "try" to put me down Betty..... and you too Lizzy. When someone who is nearly proud of the fact they read little more than the headline before making a fool of themselves I consider the source of the negative comments......... but usually not very long before laughing.<br> Like I said, read the Official Police report from the Wauwatosa, Wisconsin Police Dept by arresting Officer Jeffrey S. Griffin.<br>(now for the rude arrogant part) You can read can't you?

ALL of us are guilty! I am worse now that ever. But, when using the word "your" instead of "you're" , think of how the word is actually used. Your is possessive, it means something is yours, while you're is meaning "you are" Then there is the ever missed "Their" and "There". The word " their" means people, while "there" means a place. "Too" means "also" and "Two" means a number. These are some of the most familiar words misused on comments. Thanks and God bless you all!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Shelly]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 21st 2009 11:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA["Your" is a possessive determiner, in contrast to the possessive pronoun "yours". "Their" doesn't `mean people`, it's also a possessive determiner; similarly, "there" doesn't `mean a place`; it's not a pronoun at all, but an adverb.<br><br>Nothing you said is really wrong; I'm just clarifying...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michael]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2009 3:33PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Teen Arrested for Texting in Class, Hides Cell Phone in Butt]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/18/teen-arrested-for-texting-in-class-hides-cell-phone-in-butt/</guid><description><![CDATA[Thank you Michael.
