Why do I have to spend 1/2 hour negotiating with a seven year old?  

I receive  a radio call that an administrator is needed outside.  I head outside and discover that a student has hit a classmate and when the teacher attempts to talk to the student he runs away from her.  The next 30 minutes are spent with me talking to the student about making better choices and hoping all the while that he doesn't run from me.  This wouldn't be the first time he has ran from me.  No college courses prepares you for this.
