!leafs it's clearly not the teachers fault kids ain't learning, it's gotta be that darned social media
Four Ontario school boards have launched $4.5-billion in lawsuits against social media giants Snapchat, TikTok and Meta — which owns Facebook and Instagram — accusing them of deliberately hurting students, interfering with their learning and harming their mental health, leaving educators to “manage the fallout.”

teachers aren't allowed to call kids r-slurs and throw them out of class for misbehaving anymore, so suing social media is their only option.

From what I read a lot of school districts don't want to be financially liable for a cellphone getting broken or stolen while under their control but admins and teachers didn't give a shit about that when I was in school ~15 years ago and would rip them out of your hand and throw them in a box lol.

We've decided that it's really unfair for people to face consequences for any behavior.

They should send the kid home/suspend them for bringing a porn-device to school. What happened to zero-tolerance?

man I thought the lawsuit was about tiktok rotting their brains off campus, i didn't know they're literally whining because they made rules against taking kids phones in class and are facing the consequences

No I think it is the former but dramanauts are wondering why teachers just do not confiscate phones from kids in classrooms when they are using them and not paying attention.
