I don’t think that’s the right way to handle that. 

My original point wasn’t what should be done, but rather the weird saddling of schools with this responsibility. 

First, communities should have social support to enable parents and kids to turn themselves around if this happens. 

Then, fines should be given to parents of kids doing this (based on income, so rich parents can’t just pay their way out). These kids of behaviors are almost always because of the parents.

Finally, repeat offenders or those committing worse crimes should be charged and sentenced. 

By all means put these social workers in the schools to deal with this behavior. Hell, we already have cops in them. But teachers (especially) and school administration should specialize in learning—not rehabilitation. 

And if something like assault (beating up a kid) happens, it’s a crime. We have people to handle that. 

Again, no one is saying schools should do nothing. My original point was schools alone cannot fix this, and the blame being pointed (almost entirely) at them in this article is weird.

The stance the school can take is that everything reported to the school will be given to the specialists for these kinds of problems.
