Today, I went to my job as an aide for first-grade students. I went home with a swollen face after my student punched me because I was, "making the timer go too fast" and he wanted more iPad time. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, as a support worker, I spent 45 minutes making various attempts to calm a violent autistic kid. Just as soon as I was sure the crisis was over, he beat me as hard as he could with the "Things I Can Do When I'm Mad" book I'd given him. FML
Today, I finally had one of my preschool students observed by the county for aggressive behavior intervention. Of course, he only started hitting my assistant and other students after the observer left. FML
Today, while at work, I was asked if I wanted to leave early. I said no and let my coworker go instead. Two hours later, I was punched in the face by one of my patients, with absolutely no warning or provocation. FML
Today, I volunteered to help out at an elementary school. I accidentally elbowed a little girl in the face while playing tag. And an hour later, a little boy flew out of his swing because I accidentally pushed him too hard. They're both siblings and are my child psychology instructor's kids. FML
Today, my math teacher raged at a student for eating an apple in class. As he yelled at the student, he slapped the apple out of his hand and right into my face. Everyone laughed, including the teacher. FML
Today, I was volunteering at a neighborhood house tutoring a bunch of kids. Everything was going fine until one of them jumped on the table I was at, which broke and hit my knee. I swore in front of all the kids and my volunteer coordinator. FML
Today, at my job as a teacher, I saw a student cut another student's hair, I stopped a group of students from eating glue, and I had to tell a student to put away the toy cars he was playing with. I teach high school math. FML
Today, at daycare, a little girl cussed me out because I didn't have any apple juice left. When I called her parents, they sided with her and cussed me out too. My boss refused to sympathize, and reprimanded me for not making sure we still had apple juice. FML
Today, I was in school when I got up to ask the teacher a question. For no reason, the guy sitting next to me punched me in the gut so hard I collapsed and saw stars. The teacher simply rolled her eyes and told me to get back to work. FML
Today, as I was yelled at by a middle school teacher in front of 30 6th graders for breaking the rule of "no cell phones in school." Luckily, I escaped being sent to the office after explaining I'm a 21 year old college student doing student teaching observations, not a middle schooler. FML

Aren't all schools closed due to Coronavirus right now? I'm a teacher and my school is going to be closed for the rest of the school year.

Kids like that piss me off. What kind of parenting is being done at his home that he thinks punching someone is okay? It's also disgusting that kids need iPad time at school. No wonder kids don't know anything these days.

It depends on where they’re from, and also I think a lot of these didn’t actually happen that recently and are from before the pandemic

Did you not get training? You should have been taught to put up your guard when trying to separate a kid from their iPad. "Like taking candy from a baby" is a stupid cliché because those little ******* are going to put up a fight!

i would have been in grade 1 around 1999. If anyone hit a teacher they got a good smack and got their ass dragged to the office for a suspension. Altho back then they still kit kids knuckles with rulers and threw chalk at your head if you talked.Kids these days lack discipline.

First of all, yeah aren’t schools closed? Second, You should have smacked him back lol, some kids think they can do anything. I know I thought I could when I was younger. Obviously I understand you can’t do that
