Attempt to engage with a behaviour like this should not be attempted at all. The boy might not be deaf, but he didn't need to yell it out at the teacher. Not to mention, bringing up outrageous remarks "it’s not like I asking money for sex" when he doesn't even fully understand the consequences of saying such things. Hence that behaviour requires disciplinary action.
I feel that the teacher has the right to shout at him. He already instructed the boy to go back to his seat and he did not seem to understand. Teachers shouldn't have apologized in this case. That is a big mistake. This makes the student think that he's not in wrong. You can see that he is taking one step further once this teacher softens his voice.
The teacher could have stood firm on his grounds but instead was submissive when this little one raised his voice. Or else, it will be hard to command the respect of his students if this continues...
I guess the following are the reasons that led to this scenario:
- The failure of the education system in blind chase of academics excellence, but always neglecting character building.
- Discipline has been severely lacking in many cases ever since corporal punishment was removed...today's children behaved so precociously as though that they are the jewels that befit the manner of treatment.
- Parents did not play an efficient role in upbringing their children manners or parents are equally rude (the saying of ‘chip off the old block’).
- Students nowadays are badly influenced by what they see in media.
In my opinion, all three parties (the boy, his parents and authority) will need to review this case. Most importantly, the boy has to seriously reflect on his action; parents need to change their way of character teaching; and authority should reassess school’s punishment and character building.
If this happens again, the student must not be given a chance to remain in this school. The setting up of the school is to help them significantly. He has failed to realise this.
