  2. What a terrible thing for a teacher to do to her student. Simply shameful! Unfortunately, it happens often. In North Bay, Ontario, Canada a teacher cut off the braid of a little girl in her elementary class for "misbehaving". After she was confronted she actually tried to justify her actions, because the student was a "problem child". Seriously, what kind of people do that to kids?!

  4. That is amazing. I remember the big story in my city years ago when the teacher wrote on the little girl's face "Where are my glasses?" because she kept forgetting them. She was only in kinder, I think. There are definately better ways to go about things and hair is just hair.
