February 27 2024- Justin Baeder, an education philosopher and content creator, sparked a discussion about teachers facing challenges with disruptive and harmful students. In a TikTok video, Baeder urged teachers to advocate for themselves and their students’ safety when dealing with students who may not be in the appropriate placement. He emphasized the need for educators to demand the right to refuse service to students they cannot safely serve, drawing a parallel to the medical profession where doctors prioritize safety and can refuse service if they cannot perform it safely. Baeder encouraged a shift in the education sector to prioritize safety as a fundamental concern.
