   Hi Dallas!   
      
   Well.. one could always say that with a little smile, or hand out cookies and   
   candies for the kids that do settle down and behave.     
      
   But I hear stories from teachers that kids who launch accusations of abuse   
   from teachers who in so much as touch them on the shoulder.
