  • Ohh wow, I'm sorry, as horrible as that is, I had to laugh.. "-20% for being a loser!"

  • Good thing that bitch didn't write that on one of my kids paper! I would have knocked her ass out! I would go to jail for a minute but some things are worth it.

  • @celticprideism

    It's a guy teacher... -.-

  • Then keep your kids out of the school. Home school or shut up and let the teacher teach. Kids should be seen and not heard until age 16 anyway.

  • Clement, Umadbrah?

  • SUCCESsFUL TROLL IS SUCCESSFUL

  • I'm 12 and my teacher calls me a whore, but i stand with pride.

  • @iloveyouabcg lol

  • This is bullying. Plain and simple. The teacher is not their to joke or relate to the students. He/she is their to teach them. How the hell is "-20% for being a loser" a joke anyways?

  • trollllolol

  • everyone takes life too seriously. lighten up you miserable fucks, it's not as if he was writing 'terrible' or 'worst thing ever'. it's a little joke

  • oh come on. i can easily imagine this teacher saying these things in a jokingly way, and not to bully. i've had silly teachers take their annoying jokes a little too far when I was in school. this is clearly not bullying.

  • thumbs up for teachers' unions for allowing people like that to continue to have a job

  • Hes probaly a pedophial. If not the hes just a dick.

  • That's just disgusting.

  • FIRE THE BASTARD

  • Her teacher was Charlie Sheen

  • calm down. We only saw a photo of the girl - maybe they should have interviewed HER, then we would have gotten to see if she was a loser or not. The teacher coulda just been calling a spade a spade.

  • Awww man if that was one of my nieces that teacher would be having a black eye by now. if he kept it up i would break his arm better not hurt my girls in my life there would be payback.

  • Kid deserved it.

  • Wow. To hear that some personnel actually defended the teacher makes me happy I'm wasn't born there.

  • They say "This is a personnel matter that is being investigated." I hear, "We're going to sit on our asses and do fuck all about it."

  • The problem with this is that she's still young and at a time when she still being socialized or inculturated. If she was in high school, the loser joke wouldn't be as hurtful or have been taken differently (depending on the individual but with some understanding), but she's still 12. + the pencil chucking part is too far and should be considered an offense as it demoralizes, humiliates and scares someone into a forced position, even as adults.

  • I was a Piedmont Triad North Carolina college student in 1990 when a TV reporter named REX ROLAND was in a promo for WNCT-TV (Greenville, NC; CBS ch. 9), billing the station as “First In News”. Around the same time, stalking victim HARRIS FAULKner also worked at WNCT before jetting off to local TV in Kansas City. WNCT-TV REX ROLAND is probably not related to teacher REX ROLAND who made news at Enka Middle School in Candler, NC in March 2010 for writing "loser" comments in grading his students

  • watch?v=4uqGWTZn6p0 has REX ROLAND’s WNCT "First In News" promo from 1990. He’s proabably not related to teacher REX ROLAND in the news 20 years later (March 2010) at bunCOMBe County Schools' Enka Middle (390 AsBURY Rd) in CANDLEr, NC. Teacher REX ROLAND wrote "loser” in margins of his 6th grade students’ papers; on her daughter’s paper, mother Patty Clement took exception. Anyone else see the irony in call letters for the station providing footage in this AP video, WLOS, needing ER for WLOSER?

  • Probably we have several methods to teach, but none of them should include abuse and humiliation.....

  • The guy probably got girls mixed up with adult men in his head. Men respond well to ridicule and abuse. Look at the whole culture of machismo. Girls not so much, especially when they're twelve. You have to treat girls differently than boys even. Boys can take some teasing and be ok. Girls mostly just dish it out, but can't take it. The teacher is too immature to be employed at that job. He should have been a coach, but probably he's too wimpy.

  • His way of "relating to the students"? How about trying encouragement instead of ridicule, shithead? How the fuck did this guy get his teaching degree anyway?

  • He was obviously bullied by girls when he was in 6th grade

  • Comment removed

  • @WatchMeShred

    Ah, yeah, lets BLAME the victim!? Wow. NOT. How about pointing to the ADULT in an authority position who affects students self esteem?

  • There is not enough information in this!!! I can't understand how someone who is smart enough to be a teacher could ever do something this mean and stupid. It is inexcusable, and they should definitely fire the teacher, no question.

  • @kennebacasiskyle "smart enough to be a teacher" There is your first mistake. "those who can't do...teach."

  • thtz dumb if she writes loser dosnt she no shes gona get fired anyway? drunk

  • this is not new! everyone is always applauding teachers , but lots of teachers are abusive , in fact I blame a lot of teachers for causing kids to bully other kids,by example. they ridicule kids and embarress them in front of their peers. they have a lot of power and not enough training in psychology.

  • If some c*nt teacher was doing this to my little sister id f*cking beat the sh*t out of him, let him know what it feels like to be helpless. What an absolute c*nt.!

  • @XRIVAL360 So I guess that's why your mom did that to you. I'm very sorry.

  • @desenagrator

    No actually, I just don't have any time for teachers that bully children you immature twat. You fail @ phychology. Why you wanna try mouthing me off? You agree with this teacher bullying a child? dick head.

  • Mr. Roland does not need to be a teacher. The other parents who don't have a problem with this must have their heads up their collective asses.

    This is a completely unacceptable situation where the only thing this little girls parents can do is start to teach her about how messed up some people really are in this world.

  • Well, then the kid should have stopped being a loser.

  • @WithExtremePrejudice ur mother is a loser!

  • @WithExtremePrejudice ur mother is a loser!

  • @KissDanielle UR face is a loser!

  • thats all u got?? u obviously dont like being insulted so why do it to others?? u made my point!

  • @KissDanielle Get off my lawn.

  • want to know what i am going to do? I will upload a video of a comment i got as child. The teacher bullied me,,, i will post it as respond probably!! He said i am a crybaby

  • what teacher does that>>?? waht a *(&*(&%&$ Jerk! Hes a damn looser

  • hahahahaha What a Jerk

  • I go to this School. o.o

  • What an anti-social git.

    PS say the town's name out loud and it all becomes clear......

  • Ha ha ha ha ha! For being a loser!!!!!!

  • Very good. All this crap about all children being special is bullshit. Children should learn early on that it's not very likely that they'll amount to much more than corporate drones in this world. Most people will lose. Reality bites.

  • Jesus fucking christ just grow a pair people

  • I will probably get abuse for this but, at least he was trying something. So many teachers don't care about their students failing a test, they are only in it for a pay cheque. This guy (knowing that these things go home to the parents) did something that he knew was, sooner or later, going to get him into hot water. But he did it anyway. I don't agree with what he did but i feel he did it in the quest to do his job well

  • @story46 no, he is a jerk. I'm a teacher and I would NEVER call anyone, much less a STUDENT a loser. By the way...TRUST ME...no one in in this profession for the paycheck. In fact most are in it in spite of the paycheck. Its a hard job and its getting harder by the year but if I ever consider calling a child a name I will be out of the classroom as fast as possible.

  • @Jen42jas13 Well I'm Irish (hense, cheque) and over here the teachers start off take home pay is 45k USDollars and it rises, regardless or performance, to over 120k by year 20 of ones career. I do agree though that teachers have a tough job (god knows mine did) but I feel like all of the teachers that I look back on now as great teachers, who were genuinly gifted in the area of inspiration, were the ones who changed it up a bit a tried a different tact......

  • Who's the father of this teacher? Gunnery Sargent Hartman from Full Metal Jacket?

  • If your coming on here and trying to make excuses for what this teacher did, your freaky messed in the head. It does not matter how hard the job is it is a little kid. Grow up

  • I definately dont agree with what this teacher did but most of you dont understand the self sacrifices made. Not only is the workload horrendous, it is an emotionally draining, high stress job. You get sworn at, threatened, and ridiculed 6 hours a day, 5 days a week. Especially if you work at a school in a low socio-economic area.

    His actions were wrong...but his opinion is probably right.

  • @TheOriginalChizl

    "You get sworn at, threatened, and ridiculed 6 hours a day, 5 days a week"

    Sounds like my IT job, only there you get ridiculed 9 hours a day.

  • LMFAO

  • @energeez please tell what ''LMFAO'' means i have been seeing it eveywhere.

  • Give me five minutes alone with him, and this will never happen again.

  • well americans r all losers including the teachers , thats why this teacher will be hanged soon. u think your FREE , THINK AGAIN . WE WILL HANG U..

  • well americans r all losers including the teachers , thats why this teacher will be hanged soon.

  • He most defiantly relates to the child on a very unnatural and personal level, perhaps he is a pedophile.

  • I can SO relate to that.The worst part is, whenever a student complains that their teacher is abusing them, no one listens or cares.For some strange and stupid reason,they just assume that the teacher is perfect and can do no wrong.Instead,they turn around and punish the kid for nothing rather than face the fact that not all adults are better than kids.In fact,they need to grow up far more than we do.Thumbs up if you agree.Thumbs down if you are a child abusing teacher like the one on the vid.

  • all i can say is that damn teacher is a LOSER for even callin a child that supposedly ur student.....are u serious??

  • 0:51 that teacher will se this 1 day & be like "Oh, sh*t, i need to apalogize!"

  • Whoa, mike. You are a little unstable buddy. First of all, coming on here and calling people idiots and c^nts because they don't agree with someones teaching methods, that's not going to get your message heard. But do you really care?

    Second, a teacher calling a young child a loser, whether verbally or written on a test sheet, is WAAYYY out of line. If you're saying you wouldn't have a problem with that had this been your child, I find that difficult to believe. At any rate, chill out dude.

  • FAIL!

    LOSER!

  • Fired!!!

  • I was a teacher for 27 years. I seriously doubt that a teacher would write loser on a child's paper. There is more to this story, I'm sure.

  • what kind of weaksause douche bag makes fun of a 12 yearold.

  • @russian1mafia I'm with ya, that's not cool.

  • @russian1mafia You're mom when you were 12.

  • innocent fun, he would have said if you do bad youre a LOSER, if you do well, you are AWESOME.

    its a good method, and the mother is a fucking retard for complaining.

    the real problem here is her daughter is a LOSER as is she a LOSER

  • @mikesomething you know, they say if you call a child stupid as in frequently since young, that child will grow up thinking he/she is always stupid. This fuels pessimistic feelings in that child which is not good at all. Roland's teaching should bent towards encouraging and disciplining a student. Not some name-calling. A good method you say? If it is, which has not yet been proven, then encouraging and discplining a student correctly would be the best method, which has already been proven.

  • @Equals2nine way to miss the point.

    there is no difference between writing a big fat F (which stands for FAIL)on a childs paper, than writing loser.

    and as i said, it is simply a way of relating to the children, and would have been explained as such.

    it is not name calling, so dont call it what it is not. it is grading, using language the kids themselves use.

    he wasnt making FUN of them you fucking retards.

    LOSER, F for FAIL, FAILURE, it doesnt matter what word you use,

    CUNTS.

  • @mikesomething then what's a dictionary for if it doesn't matter what word you use? Then why do researchers don't recommend you to call your child stupid? F is a grading, loser is name calling. Get it right. Loser is only a grading in Roland's dictionary. Fail and Loser are not the same. 'Failure' and Loser IS the same. Again, get it right. And, you don't justify yourself by calling others fucking retards or cunts. Wait, have you even had experience working with kids?

  • @Equals2nine i wish your teacher had called you a loser, you fucking shitcunt

  • @mikesomething Writing an F means that they did bad on that certain assignment. Calling them a loser communicates to them that they will never get a good grade on anything and can't do anything right. There's a difference between grades and insults.

  • @sunset261 I agree

  • @sunset261 no it doesnt you fucking cunt.

    the teacher would have explained to them what it meant beforehand.

    dont imply your own meaning on to what this teacher did.

    you are a cunt, please fuck off the internet

  • @mikesomething theres nothing that shows the teacher explained what it meant in this case and even if he did, it's still name-calling and is inappropriate for a teacher to be doing.

  • @sunset261 common sense dictates it was explained, it is no different from calling it a FAIL

    the student is at fault for being a failure, as is her fucking idiot parent

    it is nothing like name calling, why are you so fucking stupid ?

    why are you retards so fucking stupid ?

    the WORD is not important it is the MEANING behind the word that counts, and the meaning was simply to encourage the child to do better, not to insult the child.

    fuck off cunt

  • @mikesomething nothing dictates that it was explained, that's a unsupported inference. There is a difference. there is a difference. Saying "failed" on an assignment merely means that they didn't get a good enough score on it. "Loser" is just an insult to their character. Even in they did fail the assignment it wouldn't be inappropriate for the teacher to call them a failure because it's an insult to character that deals more than just the assignment at hand.

  • @mikesomething Okay first of all I am saying it is ok to say Loser maybe once, BUT if it continues on and on the kid might think they really are a loser and might not try at all. Then it will continue and sooner or later the kid might commit SUICIDE and if that happens the teacher could be charged and then be FINALLY called a criminal. What I am saying is that its needs to stop NOW or else it will get worse and worse, by the way YOUR THE CUNT ASSWIPE.

  • @TheXavier1999 you and your family are cunts, this is why you think the way you do

    you wont get anywhere in life, and you will end up poor and lonely, fat, and unhealthy.

    people will think you are a cunt

  • @mikesomething You must know this from experience, lol

  • @TheXavier1999 yes, i know a cunt when i see 1

  • @mikesomething You must have been looking in the mirror then.

  • When I was in 5th grade, my teacher hated me and the whole year made it known. She went as far as to have a 6th grader bully me. I was a tiny person and this other student towered over me. He actually hurt me and I had no real way of defense.

    One day towards the end of the school year, this teacher made a comment about me to another student. I responded stating that I knew that she was talking about me. so she sent me to the principle. She even told the principle that she disliked me.

  • This man shouldn't be let lose on animals nevermind kids! He is a loser!!

  • Lmao I want to buy that teacher a drink! It's a hard world, and pussy-footing through it just won't cut it anymore.

  • I'd go to the school and slap the "teacher" around. That should teach him not to mess with kids.

  • Two of my primary school teachers potentially ruined my childhood with many blatant acts of discrimination against me for no apparent reason at all. This went on for two whole years! My Mum tried over and over to get it to stop to the point where she went to the extent of removing me from the school because the Principal thought it "wasn't a big deal". If the Teachers were to say those things to me TODAY, I could probably take it . . . but when you're 10 or 11, it just tears you up inside.

  • Teacher's email is rex.roland@bcsemail.org

    if anyone cares.

  • Some kids ARE losers and need a kick in the ass go get back into shape.

  • sounds like Rex is a fag

  • Well mabye if her kid wasn't such a LOSER

  • @samspace81 get a life and stop calling poor kids losers. don't be so insecure

  • @MckieMarie it was intended to be sacastic, observant one. Obviously its terrible a teacher would do something like that. The article wasn't about me.

  • Wow... I can't believe this could even happen. In Australia that teacher would be fired ASAP, that is if they even managed to get their teacher qualification which they wouldn't have. I am a student teacher doing practicum at the moment, and yes it is a stressful job at times, but that doesn't give any teacher any excuse to do that to a child. Horrible.

  • this is totally, totally inappropriate for a teacher to do this

  • If i was that girls parent i would kick that teachers ass all the way to massachusets

  • she was just telling the facts

  • When its children to children, its bullying. When its adult to children ITS ABUSE!!!

  • @venuslock35 >Implying bullying isn't a form of abuse

    Not sure if serious, if you can somehow draw parallels between children bullying children with a fully-grown, educated and cognitively developed adult bullying a 12 year-old girl, you have a very warped sense of reality.

  • yeah "the problem is being investigated". that is total bs. i know the principals. the principals dont even deserve the jobs. from what i heard. mr. earwood called one of my black friends a negro and my sister got jumped by several girls and mr earwood hardly did anything. i hate enka middle and im glad im out. the only years that were good were 6th and 7th and that was before mr earwood was hired.

  • @darthmaul627 thats great you got out of that horrible school! it even looks like a dump! they need to change everything about it!

  • if i was the dad he would get his ass beat

  • But at least it got mother's attention on the fact that her child is a loser...

  • logan talbot is a bitch.

  • He should have known better and written something different, like Inbred Moron or something like that.

  • Thasts so wrong To be calling a sixth grader a "loser"

    if it was my teacher grading a test like that she would have just wrote you neeed to study more or try harder. she wouldn't call any of us "losers".

    thats not acceptable, a teacher is supposed to TEACH and SUPPORT the child, not bring down their self-esteem !

  • I'd be on the teacher, the principal, the school district and anyone else that mattered so fast they wouldn't know what just happened. 1) My child would be taken OUT of the class faster than you could say NOW! 2) A formal apology written from the teacher to myself and my child 3) Do JUST what this parent did and go to YouTube AND the media! 4) They'd remember my name! That's just NOT acceptable...PERIOD!

  • @BenatarTribute wow some one is an overreacting douche

  • @Mangula1990 no they aren't

  • This teacher sounds like they have some issues. I don't know where a public school teacher gets off calling anyone a loser

  • @TGLymantaiste Especially when teachers are low paid losers lol

  • That is really messed up. This should be stopped, literally. That teacher has no riht to write down something like that about any student, or person. It is not their job too post their points of view onto the children on what they call a "teaching method" Which is really a bullying and self esteem reducing way too tell the students that he dosn't like them. Poor girl, I know what it's like too be called stupid and a loser by an adult. And hurts, it makes you want too stop trying all together.

  • I still say the teacher needs to be fired for being an ass.

  • Like I commented to craftnation, I think calling a student a loser once by jking is ok. But, writing on assignments and callling the pupil loser many times calls for a mental hospital for the teacher. I think it is too much, and no child should suffer like that.

  • @billydumont  what the f*ck are you talking about.. she's a little 6th grader for Christs sake! This will lessen her little ego and will lessen her self confidence effecting her in the long run.. please think before you try to make a point. This guy called an 11-year-old a loser; this would only be mildly okay if she was a college student.

  • Teachers will be a thing of the past in a few years. No one will be able to perform the duties of a teacher because of jealous parents (like you who commented things like "he should be fired") trying to burry these fine men and women. Soon, a teacher won't be able to even breath a word without someone taking it the wrong way and getting fired or suspended. and the parents are FAR worse than the students, my friend. Parents will have to be the teachers, as they should be already

  • This is TOTAL b*llshit. First of all, he did'nt mean "Loser" like in the sense of a 35-yr-old-ex-con-with tattoos type loser. This paper could have been turned in late, and he was making a refernce to "last place", or maybe it was an essay about being on a sports team that did'nt win alot and he was making a joke. Do you guys get the concept of the word joke? its being "fun". Showing you give a damm unlike most parents. Having a teacher who can make you laugh is ALWAYS a positive thing in life

  • no that wasnt a joke and even if it was that can emotionaly affect her in the long run, he should be fired

  • what the f*ck are you talking about?

    the little girl is in 6th grade; this could seriously hurt her small ego and lessen her self confidence which could scarr her in the future

  • Bitch deserved it. =}

  • PRIVATE SCHOOL FTW

  • Dear Sirs or Madam,

    Mr. Roland has been suspended for two weeks without pay.

  • The teacher should be given a lesson he'd better learn.

  • I had a simular prob with my daughters 1st grade teacher...needless to say, after I contacted the proper people, she was released from her teaching at that school! She started teaching at another school, and had the same thing happen to her there....she NO LONGER is allowed to teach now!!!!! =) I hope the same happens to this SCHMUCK...revoke his abilities to teach. That teacher is the only LOSER in this vid!!! =)

  • glad to hear it.

  • ha! they disabled the email page

    but you can still email the assistant admin.

    do so.

  • Elementary teachers are the most emotionally problematic people I can remember from my childhood and it's good to see that people are taking a stand against this kind of wrongness.

  • Yea, one of my 8th grade teachers was a bitch, to be blunt. She was completely biased and somehow she believed that would help me in the long run. There was only one "sane" teacher i remember having at my elementary school

  • @Command37

    Have you ever had under your full care 25-30 disobedient children having a sweet feeling of almost unlimited power?

  • @DictatorRoB have you ever been a social outcast without ANY friends and a teacher that writes stuff like this on your work to make the problem worse?

  • @Command37

    No, but damn, good comment!

    It could really make some bigger trouble. But there is still big possibility that the very children who had his exam marked as LOSER is an not social outcast, just a lazy brat.

    But still, I do admire your tactic answer.

  • ...I knew our schools in NC sucked ass...but damn dude...i didnt know it was that bad everywhere i thought it was just in the southern part xD [gaston county]

  • This fool should not be allowed to teach. There are better ways to reach a child. Perhaps HE is the loser for not being able to understand how to reach her and understand what her learning style is. If HE can't get her past the so-called "loser" stage is his class, maybe she should be in another class or have other resources available. The problem is not HER, it's HIM! Sorry is the school board that is aware of this and doesn't address it. Throwing her pencil box? Who is the kid here?

  • If this were my kid..teacher would need a new set of teeth

  • cehck out my video!!! its better... subscribe

  • @billydumont

    Dude!! JUST GO FUCK OFF!!! Really? I cant belive you would put a comment like that!! HOW OLD ARE YOU? Becuase any kid in Middle School would acutally care if there teacher called them that! They wouldnt want to go to school, or they would be embaressed! I wish one of your teachers would call youa lose! Then, maybe you would know what the girl went through!

  • It is mental abuse pure and simple.Relating to the Students?An excuse to be abusive.Take away his license.

  • @Bobofet241 And sue the school district, lol

  • It is mental abuse pure and simple.The trouble is problem teachers just get shuffled to another School.He should lose his license to teach.

  • I blame the kid for being a loser.

  • Loser

  • Loser

  • -2% for being a loser ...haha Good one

  • are the lawyers lining up for this one yet? this 'teacher' is a bloody feast for the legal sharks.

  • THIS IS HILARIOUS.

  • There is always the avenue of homeschooling and then the child could possibly receive no adversity. I have been in the best and some of the worst schools and a teacher printing Loser on a paper pales in comparison to the real issues that are facing our kids.

  • I say again, what has the success rate been of this teacher and if there is a problem, where are the other parents? There are real education issues facing American students and if we dont look to solve educating our young then America will be worse then it is today.

  • First and foremost and If it was a problem then the parent should have taken the time out not only to attend the class with their child but also be prepared to move their child If there was any threat, then gather with the parents of students in that class who are dealing with the reality and make change.

  • As I stated previously, we have not been provided enough information to make an informed decision on an action that took place between others. I have discussed this with several educators. I wish that this type of attention was truly given to discipline our young. The reality is that the parents are there to ensure their childs future success.

  • What the what!!

  • This teacher should be fired but tenure laws will make it take years and cost up to millions of dollars in courts

    kids should be corrected on their papers when they mess up, but not called names... that does the exact opposite of what the teacher should be doing

    fire this son of a bitch and fix the tenure laws let the free market work

    we don't live under Capitalism we live under Coporatism.. we don't need regulation because if you go bankrupt you're done

    Federal Reserve = bank cartel

  • lol i like that teacher

  • @ princedunbarkevin Well yes KIDS are saying thing but that is kids, not a Teachers that is suppose to help your kids feel good about learning in school not have a negative effect on them. I have been in that EXACT situation and because of that teacher I have hated school ever since and I do not want another child to feel like that!!!

  • These teachers are losers and you can tell by howmany kids are failling compared to passing.

    when the children fail, the teachers are failing.

  • Not gonna lie - I laughed when I saw the headline.

    Other than that, it's pretty messed up.

  • Comment removed

  • Fire the teachers who don't give a shit and find better ones who ACTUALLY LIKE TO BE A TEACHER AND NOT BITCH EVERYDAY...just my thought on how schools should be ran.

  • @jmoneyboy08 Schools should be RUN. not ran
