One person said: ‘How can this only be mild? I’d be fucking furious. Teachers should not crush dreams, they should encourage them.”
Another user commented, “You can get a teacher reprimanded for that. Take this to the director.
‘I’m so serious. Crushing hopes and dreams is a job of life, not of the elementary school teacher. This teacher needs a reality check.”
Someone else wrote: ‘Time for a chat with the teacher.’
A fourth added: “I hope the little one grows up to be a world gymnastics champion.”
