> ---Parent of third grader informs school that her daughter should be allowed to dress and act like a lion and roam around the classroom.

This specific meme has been floating around with the MAGA crowd for at least 4-5 years now. It’s not clear if it has any basis in reality, but it is one of those “I heard it on Facebook so it must be true” kind of things.

That is a meme and it does not matter whether it happened or not it would be too rare to matter.

What matters is the lack of discipline and respect for boundaries (beyond traditional teen behavior) possibly caused by social deprivation in our social app age. It is brought to the surface in the classroom where teachers have considerable less power than earlier. Physical attack once unthinkable are not rare anymore.

Kids punching teachers without consequences is real though. Or it may even have negative consequences for the teacher who got punched.
