In life, you have a study of opposites. You have nice and you have mean. You have big and you have small. You have tough and you have wimpy.
I'm wimpy.
I've deducted this after years of not standing up for myself, years of apologizing for things that aren't my fault, for allowing myself to be stretched thin because I'm scared to say "no" out of fear someone will be mad at me. Stupid little things that have clued me in to my inner coward. When you've based your life around avoiding conflict, you become good at it. You can solve a problem before it even presents itself. Usually.
And then there are days like today...the entire weekend prior to today, even, but I won't get into that.
Today was my first day teaching. This is what I've worked four years straight to be able to do, and the big day finally arrived. I was sick to my stomach, excited, scared, a whole slew of generic emotions. I went in, knowing what to expect but deep down understanding that I really had no idea at all. I'd imagined what today would go like. I imagined I'd lose my voice, that I would forget everything I needed to say today. I never imagined that HE would darken my doorway.
First and second periods went well. Nothing outstanding occured, but nothing went wrong. I got through it and started to get a little confident. Just had to get through third period, then lunch, then fourth and fifth, and then I could go home early during my planning period.
Just get through third period.
I knew the second I looked up and caught the familiar slouch, the bookbag worn in the front, that face that I was doomed. All these belonged to a student named *Doug. Doug had attended the school I teacher assisted at last year. He was expelled from that school and the entire schol district for punching a teacher out.
He recognized me immediately upon entering the classroom. He meandered to my desk and gulped down the last of his Pepsi. He slammed it down on my desk and let out a long belch.
"Sorry I didn't get you an apple, miss, have some trash."
"Please have a seat, Doug," I answered, swiping the can off my desk and into a small wastebasket. See? Classic case of wimpy. Overlook some snotty gesture by a "rebel teen", just to avoid the conflict that could ensue.
And class went on. Until Doug decided to spit bits of paper into *Samantha's new weave.
"Miss, this cost my mama $80, he better stop it."
Finally I threw down the only big guns that 5'3", nonmuscular me has. "Doug, if you can't behave then I'll have to write you up." I know, that's some tough shit, right?
Doug was tougher. He stood up so quickly his desk toppled sideways. He didn't step any closer to me. Instead, he balled his hands up in fists at his side and flinched at me, making like he was going to come closer. I moved behind my desk, because it provides soooooo much protection against a 6'3, 200 pound guy. I picked up the phone to dial in for reinforcements.
About five minutes later, the liaison officer arrived in my room, and escorted Doug to the office. Word came back: Ten days suspension, after which he would be returning to my class. Just great.
And did I complain? Refuse to have him back in the class? Nope. Because I'm wimpy.
Fast forward 45 minutes. A woman appeared in my room during my lunch break. She told me she was Doug's mother. I invited her in, had her sit down, and explained the situation. I figured she would at least apologize for her son's behavior, if not let me know she was going to whoop his ass when she got home.
Instead she let me know that if her son was expelled again, he would be placed in his father's care. This was unacceptable to her. She also let me know I was to never discipline her son again, in any way shape or form. She slammed the door on her way out.
Instead of sticking up for myself, I put my head down on my desk and in true wimp fashion, cried.
*Names have been changed to protect the stupid little pricks involved.
How were everyone else's days?

My mum had also exactly the same experience when she was a teacher. This parent, known to be a difficult, started yelling at her, so Mum wrote the parents name on the board and sent her to the headteacher saying "I wont put up with pathetic, little girl's in my classroom no matter how old". It caused loads of shit, but my mum had already handed in her notice about leaving anyway. heh, I'm so very proud of my mum.
Make sure you bollock Doug at every chance. :)

I used to work at a school board. I dealt with parents more than kids. The PARENTS are fucking prick morons. It's not surprising the kids turn out the way they do. They never had a chance before they even started school, good teachers or no. I came across one lady who didn't even know that her 19 year old had taken and miserably failed the TCAP (Tennessee HS graduation requirement) NINETEEN times. He'd failed his senior year once or twice already (you take the test for the first time as a freshman) and she was only just coming in to ask, "What's this TCAP I heard about?" Uh huh...
I don't know how helpful this rambling is to you, but thinking of these things was sometimes all that kept me from wanting to kill the kids I did get around. As tough as they tried to act I knew it was just because something was very wrong at home no matter how clueless and blameless the parents tried to come across.

I'm giving you a +2 because I feel like it.
This kid is a coward and a menace. He needs his ass kicked. While he might seem big and bad from your perspective, he's probably going to prison, where he will likely be made to wear lipstick and play hide the sausage with a guy whose dick looks like a typewriter roller. I don't know if you can take comfort in that, but I could.
Anyway, this punk has no right to terrorize you or your students. Some of his behavior you described probably constitutes assault in your locale (putting shit in people's hair or whatever). You don't need to confront him directly; instead you can go to the principal and offer him/her an opportunity to help with the complaint you will make to the police. Then report the little shitbag.
Oh, yeah. You should get some pepper spray. If he approaches you menacingly, palm the container so he can't see it, then spray his eyes. Then repeatedly kick him in the balls. Since he has a past history of assault, it should be pretty easy to make a case for self defense. Any permanent damage done to his gonads will help him more easily adjust to being a prison bitch.

I tried to rate this once before, but my prog froze and I was already into a long-ass response that contained a lot of sage-like advise that I don't remember now, and was too lazy to try and duplicate at the time.
That said, I think the jist of it was this: you are THE MAN now! The students should fear YOU, not the other way around. Think of your favorite teachers in HS. You probably liked them so much because they both commanded respect and were really cool people, right?? You need to tear a page from their book...lay down the law! Let them know that you have no problem being fair, that you can take a joke, that you are cool enough to tolerate reasonable shenannigans, but you WILL NOT be stepped on! And you MOST CERTAINLY will not tolerate abuse or disruption.
You will soon find your groove - your niche - and this will all be laughable...
As for Doug. As soon as he comes back, you should have a meeting with the principle, and the boy, and make it clear that you will not tolerate being threatened. Either that or ask the boy to stay after class and speak with him candidly and let him know how cool you are, but in such a way that, again, let's him know that you didn't deserve to be treated that way and cannot allow that to go on.
It sounds like the boy might have a bod lot in life, and a lot of his anger and rebellion could be curbed with a little understanding. THIS IS THE REASON YOU BECAME A TEACHER!!!
Don't just give up on these people...this is part of your job, not to be a total tyrant, but not to be a total pussy either. Don't you remember those sappy-ass teacher movies where the teacher walks into a total warzone of a classroom in some beaten-down inner city and there is always some 'Raul' character who thinks he is a badss giving the teacher a hard time...He comes into class and makes out with bitches in the back - sells drugs out the window...that sort of thing.
Then one day, the teacher comes in a breaks her foot off in Raul's ass, sending him scampering dragging his broken pride behind him like an injured animal...Then there is the scene later in the movie where she actually has to visit Raul's house because she cares THAT MUCH, and she sees the conditions under which poor Raul has to grow.
Long story short, Raul and teacher become best of friends, and in the end, Raul actually saves the teachers life in some boring and predictable way. Will 'Doug' save your life??? You bet your ass he will, because underneath all the sound and fury that is 'Doug' lies a wounded little beast with a thorn in its paw...
Good Luck!

So this is my first rating. While it didn't "make me smile" or "kick all ass", you get a point for being a teacher and having to deal with one of those "don't disrespect my child" parents.
Write him up again. What are the odds that his parents are divorced and both living in the same school area? If he goes off with Dad, then he's out of your hair. In that case, it's not whether you're afraid of Doug, but whether you're afraid of his mom. And maybe Doug's dad is what Doug needs.
I considered teaching, but then I considered situations like yours and realized I'd be in jail for crushing Doug's skull with a chair. I just hope you're somewhere getting paid more than Mississippi teachers.

Obviously random Joe down there went to a private school. In my experience there are no public schools without "angry violent niggers". Random Joe needs to grow some cracker balls.
Oh yeh and that sucks, my moms a teacher, you should here the horror stories. No real violence, because shes mean as a snake, but she has had two students die while in her class. In fourth grade. One committed suicide, hung himself by jumping off of a doghouse. Tell me thats not fucked up.
I'm still pissed off bout Random Joe, who has no balls and has seemingly never been outside of his suburban prep school walls.

1Point21Gigawatts is right about names. You don't meet many Dougs that are assholes.
Has there ever been a study done on names to see if this affects the child's behavior? Why is it that if you name a child Bruce, they have about a 90% chance of being gay? Why if you name a kid "Dustin" he will be an eternal asshat/loser? Hmmm. These are questions that need answers.
And if someone had something put in their weave, I'm guessing her name is way closer to "Lakisha" than Samantha. (Most Samantha's I know are usually "doable", too.)
Doug? His name is Tyree or Marcus, and his last name is probably "Washington"..If not, maybe "Jackson".

I agree with Jamie about this one. You can't let one little idiot ruin a whole class full of kids. If he gets kicked out, its his own fault. If you sit down with his mother and go over what happened, she should have no right to blame you for it; if that kid wants to act like a tool, he should be treated like a tool.

Been teaching High School for two years so....
How do you make people respect/fear/listen to you?
You can't. People have to WANT to respect/fear/listen to you. The real question should be, "How can I convince the students to want to respect/fear/listen to me? I also realize that many people will ask, "Why would someone want to fear anyone?" I'll answer that later.
I'm sure that you've heard that you need to give respect to get it. It works the other way too. If you are given nothing but disrespect, give it back. The thing about good teachers is that they see when to be the better person and give respect for the first time. Now, since you're a self-proclaimed wimp, how can you possibly show disrespect to this student? Learn how he insults others, and throw it back at him. Often people with these behavior problems are expressing their own fears through their insults towards others.
How to make people want to listen to you? Be interesting. Tell the students things that no one else does. Be as honest as you can. Whatever you're teaching, find a way to bring it back to real-world relevance. This will also help you with the respect part for your other students, and peer pressure can be a wonderful thing (when you're not a teenager).
Why would someone want to fear you? The good kids are explained easily. If you have their respect, then they will fear disappointing you... they will find this fear in every challenge you present to them. Show your disappointment in them when they fail once, and they will find their fear every time afterwards. The bullies... who knows. If I could answer that question, I'd be a fucking millionaire. The best advice I can offer from experience is to use peer pressure to your advantage. It may seem sick to use students like chess pieces, but hey, that's the real world, right? If you can somehow convince the other students to stand up to him, or better yet, show him that they are no longer afraid, he loses... big.
It would be nice to save every student, but some are unsalvageable. Know when to fight your battles, and fight them well. Call on support from another staff member if you need it. Having someone else in the room with an angry parent can make all the difference in the world, even if they never say anything.
Good Luck.

If his mom comes in, tell her that the only thing that matters to you is the education of your students. If he disrupts that, then he will be sent to the office.
If she has a problem with that, tough shit.
If he gets sent to his father, Tough Shit.

Sounds to me like you've handled it right so far. Make sure you tell someone above you about your visit from his mother as well as any experiences you had before this year. Document everything.
Each day, follow whoever's advice and give a bored "Are you done?" the first time he dicks around. After that, just tell him to get out.
And make friends with a BIG football player whi will sit between you and him, just in case.

One of my wife's good friends is a teacher (and for the life of me, I can't figure out why anyone would want to do that these days). The story she tells us are truly frightening. I mean, the stories about the kids are bad enough, but the PARENTS are the worst.
Remember when you were a kid, and if your teacher called home you were just dead, no questions asked? I sure do. These days parents are taking the side of their kids over their teachers, and this is something I absolutely cannot understand. Teachers get paid shit, and now, as an added bonus, they don't even get the respect of the people whose kids they are shaping.
I hate people.

Ok, so my wife doesn't teach teens, but 1st graders mind you. She has been teaching for 6 years now and has already had two court ordered restraining orders processed, one against a mother of a student the other against I believe an aunt who lived with a student, and one kid expelled for bring a knife - 1st grade! Every year there is always at least one to two "trouble" kids and parent(s). Something you'll have to get use too.
I wish you the best of luck in dealing with this, but know this - do not back down! Keep your head high and that phone close by. Deal with the mom via the courts/legal system. Have a report filed for every incident she causes. Eventually you'll get rid of both. Keep Dougy boy on a very short leash if at all possible. Have him sent to the school counsellor(s) if at all possible, this way it looks like you're at least making the attempt to help him.
Like I said, good luck!!!
cheers,

He's looking for one of two reactions, one is to make you feel intimidated and the other is to make you lose your cool.
Do neither.
------------------
Reckon this is the best advice on here. No need to shout, but you can't let him get away with things. If he fucks with you again, just ask whether he wants to go see the principal (do you guys do that in the states?). If he doesn't shut up, send him to the principal. And do it again and again until he gets it in his head that you won't take any shit from him. People need to learn that actions have consequences. His mother doesn't seem ready to teach this to him, so it looks like it's up to you.
I would say, if you let him get away with stuff, you'd be doing him a dis-service as a teacher - you need to prepare his ass for life after school as well (where he'll soon find out that not everyone will take his crap).

I used to do that... now I do a little of that until I start to feel put upon. Then I start by being diplomatic, then I outright tell people what I think.
Its easy to get to this stage, it just takes a few more years of being pissed all over by anyone who is less wimpy than you are.
Sooner or later you end up being so sick of it you lose your rag over something stoopid like someone stealing your pen... then its down hill from there.

On the other hand, you're a very sweet person... Just don't let people like that advantage of it... you'll be a good teacher, just don't be afraid to be mean. You might like it!

I'm really torn about you, Kristen, not that you care.
On the one hand, you seem like maybe you are a compassionate human being. You write about having a shitty day, which almost everyone has. You seem to have feelings and emotions, which most people do, and some vulnerability, which is endearing. I felt some sympathy for you because I can't stand to see anyone bullied, and that seems to be the trend for human kind.
On the other hand, you, other than Loren, have been the biggest bitch to me of anyone on this site when I tried to share something that was heartfelt, or painful to me. But you know what? Here, have a +2. I'm not going to judge this post as stupid, whiny, and pointless just because it didn't have a really kewl photoshopped picture and a made up story.

If you want to freak the little bastard out you can always use the stapler trick. Put a piece of cardboard over your stomache and under your shirt. Throughout class complain about the shirt always moving. Out of nowhere,grab the stapler, rip it open, and whack it against your stomache, stapling your shirt to the cardboard. If nothing else it will make them think your psychotic.

-- What a fucking tool I am. I posted that message in the wrong window. Sorry, Kristen.
Threatening this kid could leave you in a worse position especially if you are bluffing. The little douche bag will no doubt exploit it for all its worth. Best advice I can recomend is to not take any shit from him. Okay sounds simpler than it is, but at the end of the day, you have more power than he does. If he is not going to play ball then don't give in to him. He's looking for one of two reactions, one is to make you feel intimidated and the other is to make you lose your cool.
Do neither.
Next time he acts the douche, then just act like you could not care less. Pay more attention to the venerable students in your class. Drown him out. If he disrupts the class then just tell him to take a hike. He's already been expelled from one school and he'll probably be expelled from this one. His mother sounds like a grad-A bitch so she deserves to get what's coming to her.
It sounds harsh, but the best way to deal with a prick like that is to make him feel *holds thumb and forefinger a milimetre apart* this small.
Be bitch, Kristen. But be a coniving one. Get the rest of the class on your side.

I wish I had some good advice for you, but I'm sure I don't. It's easy to know what you'd do in someone else's shoes, but that's rarely of any use to anyone. I do hope you won't let his mother prevent you from taking any disciplinary action. It's not your responsibility to get this kid back on track and flying straight, but you don't have to let him give you any grief. Please don't hesitate to take further action to remove him from your classroom, as he sounds like a danger to both you and your students. I'm sure a hulking and aggressive punk like him will have little to worry about if he ends up living with his father. He'll be no worse off than if he remains with what can only be loosely described as his "mother."

I'd personally go with being silently intimidating. Possibly keep a stick or pointer handy, but also feel free to capitalize on the fact that he's huge, and you're... not (plus female). He won't want to lose face that way. And smile. Constantly. Mutter under your voice at him. Smile. Smile. Oh, and develop a new policy that everyone who disrupts class has to sing "I'm A Little Teapot" in front of the class. This tactic will not work, but should provide some amusement.

Ok, so no one has divulged the secret. How do you make people respect/fear/listen to you?
------------------
Respect is mutual. He has to earn it from you, just as much as you have to earn it from him. However, you are an authority figure, so that might actually put you a few steps behind. Try to be understanding with him, always make eye contact and never bullshit the kid. It seems like the only way he knows how to deal with things is with intimidation and violence, so take that away from him, see where that puts the situation.

Then capitalise on the quietness. Seriously, that can be intimidating. Don't back off, don't raise your voice, for god's sake don't hide behind any more desks. When you do that, the little fuck knows he has you. Don't ask, tell, and do it quietly.
And if all else fails, get him in the face with Raid and hit him with a wrench. That's become my answer to pretty much everything.

Kristen lay down the law, and under no circumstances deviate from your plan.
If this kid 'bucks' at you again merely stay you feel that this kid poses a threat to you and the other students. Have him removed from the class and if the adminstration gives you any static you can either: a) go to the higher ups in the school adminstration, or b)go to your union.

oh shit oh shit oh shit
As for my day?
Well let's see, I started my new job today and naturally I don't have network access. This means that I can't do any of my benefits stuff or do any work and I'm stuck paying $5 a day to park uptown until I can get my monthly parking account set up.
more importantly no network access = no internet and no e-mail
I damn near broke out in hives.
They gave me some crap to read to keep me busy so I spent most of the day listening to be sure no one would catch me reading the book that I threw into my briefcase on the way out the door this morning.
Oh and for the next 3 days, my cube is in a vault.
not kidding about that
I thought that "vault" was just an expression but apparently they used to house large stacks of money in there. It's a library now and believe me I checked, they were very thorough when they cleaned out the cash. The good news is that I'm going to be the only person in the building to survive a terrorist attack. Thursday night I'm being moved into my new space. My network access will probably be up and working just in time to get screwed up in the move but fuckitall I'm going to have a window.

K - My mother taught in an inner city school for years. She (5') had the following philosophy:
Do not show fear. Do not back down to any student. Grit your teeth and walk your skinny 5'3" self over to 'Doug', look him dead in the eye and tell him that things will be done your way, in your classroom. He won't hit you. You must be in control. Show authority. Assume power. You will win. Tell the same to his mother (my mom would frequently complain that the parents never would support her and would never take responsibly for their children's misbehavior).
Explain in the future to any disagreeing parent "I have a responsibility to 30 (?) students in this class. I will not sacrifice their education because your child has a disciplinary problem, if you want to work with me on this great. Otherwise, understand that I have a job to do.

Amen. You won't last long if you tolerate disrespect.
That bitch needs to get off her ass and do some parenting - sadly this case isn't entirely uncommon, from what I've heard (my mom teaches, too, though with younger brats). Let her know that if she doesn't discipline her son, you won't be held responsible for what happens. That's the responsible/humane thing to do. Myself, I side with BongZilla and advise to just get the fucker out of your class ASAP. There is no greater teacher than "the hard way".

That's beyond obvious. No one who shares my name (Doug) could possibly act like that. It's simply impossible. We Doug's are a kind and gentle people.
My mom just retired as a teacher in June. She was (is) one tough cookie. You gotta stand your ground as a teacher or the little fuckers will see right through you and run you outta there like a pig on a spit.

I've gotten laid once, ruined everyone's shit in Halo, AND had Wendy's chicken strips and the night is still young. Plus I posted a review for The Shining in between getting laid and chicken.
