Not a good example of negative reinforcement, IMO. If left up to me, this so called teacher would be taking a hike. :mad:

The teacher is a loser and is projecting his problems on his student.

To be fair, the kid does kind of look like a loser.



Just kidding, of course. The teacher is an ass. Can't believe anyone would defend that.

You tell a little kid like this that he/she's a loser, then they might very well turn out that way later in life. Little people have enough to deal with in this day and age than being ridiculed by an adult like that. Friggin teacher's a loser. I'm not a parent, but if I were this little girl's Dad, I'd be having a little chat with Mr. Rex.

That person should not be allowed to teach period.

That person should not be allowed to teach period. Or to be associated with children. I think there is more to this story.

When my son was younger, he had a similar problem, I had an up close and personal chat with the teacher, and things got much better.
Constructive criticism with positive reinforcement works much better.
