US Educators:
A 2022 survey found that 10% of US educators were physically assaulted in the previous year.
14% of US school educators feel humiliated by the assaults so much that they don't share the information with their colleagues.
UK Teachers:
13% of UK teachers have been physically assaulted by a pupil in the last year.
It's important to note that these are just a few examples, and the prevalence of teacher assault can vary significantly between countries and regions. Additionally, many cases of assault may go unreported, making it difficult to accurately gauge the true extent of the problem.
It's crucial to recognize that teacher assault is a serious issue with significant consequences for both teachers and students.
Schools and communities must work together to create safe and supportive learning environments for everyone.

The handwriting on the bottle was weird, but I just thought my parents were getting older. It seemed as if the security seal on the bottle was broken when I opened it. The bottle of scotch definitely had a screw cap and not a cork. It was a cheaper blend scotch.
Extreme pain in the left side of my chest for four years in the stomach region. Cramping and pain and a sense of tearing when stretching until the present time. IT started of really slowly but got much much worse over the course of exposure.
