Loyal Listener John, who sent me the first "Mean Girls" story, sends this follow-up, and the title I used for this post is also his.

The line about the elementary school boy crying "help Mommy" into his cellphone as he's being beaten is disturbing, but then again this whole story is disturbing. I know a good teacher who is close to walking away from the profession because he's not allowed to keep order in his classroom. This is insane.
