Here's the other extreme. My wife worked for a few years as a special education assistant in the local school system (elementary school level). Her, and the teachers/assistants, were specifically instructed that they couldn't even restrain a child when he/she was violent and endangering the other children. She had a few instances where she was barely able to get other children out of the way of a violent child. Way too much stress, way too little pay, and no administrative support, she eventually resigned.

Yeah god bless our good teachers what a thankless job that is. I am amazed that anyone goes into that profession.
