Is it cruel?

I don't agree, I think if you force a crying child to say their name — that's obviously going too far. But it is important to get kids used to socializing, human beings need other human beings ultimately.

i'm sorry you experienced that. if it's any consolation, the only times anyone gets forced to do anything at my wife's program is for safety reasons. like, get out of the burning building! don't elope from the classroom to the street with busy traffic or the shooting range just o'er yonder! life and death stuff. i want to say teachers have learned better, but i also want to say teachers have seen just that specific bullshit and been appalled by it. y'know, because they're human like you and most of me have empathy.
