Yes, it is everyone's duty to make sure violence is handled with caution
and eliminated. However, upbringing, the teachers behavior, and the childs'
behavior are ALL to blame. There are many steps in
controlling these types of situations. Obviously, someone stepped in
doodoo.

I love the way that it's now presumed that the teachers' behavior was a
contributing factor in the out-of-control kids behaving as they do. And I
love the way it's implied that it's the teachers who "stepped in doodoo".
Let's shift the blame from permissive, non-responsive or AWOL parents to
teachers whose job is to teach, not to raise these kids. That's why things
are as bad as they are now: The Blame Game.
