Teachers report increase in violence, threats since COVID-19 pandemic: Study – WBBM (Chicago)

Dr. Susan Dvorak McMahon, a psychology professor at DePaul University, led the study. “Sixty-five percent of our sample experienced at least one type of verbal and threatening aggression before COVID-19,” she said. “That includes things like verbal threats, insults, bullying, cyber bullying, sexual harassment, those kinds of things. During COVID, that dropped to about 33 percent of teachers, and then after COVID it was about 80 percent.”

Hello, Indiana.

Just continuing the “ no fault “ culture being promulgated by Brandon, CTU’s main operative. Don’t demonize the non-little Capones when they are exhibiting the sorts of behavior mentioned. Don’t call the police when students are shot outside of the school and drag your feet on co-operating when they get there. Don’t expel students that, in all reality, aren’t there to learn and would be in juvenile prison in a less crime friendly society. Like most progressive policies, it’s all going swimmingly.
