Part of school is preparation for LIFE as an adult, there's work to be done and there's a boss who makes the rules for behavior in that classroom,we call them teachers. If the teacher's policy is phones aren't to be used during class or the phone gets confiscated then that's how it is.
I've had my desk turned over with me in it by a volatile 65 year old teacher, been kicked hard by a female teacher in the ass, given the strap by an old principal with an eye patch whose hair, fingernails and everything else on him were stained yellow from nicotine, had a Bible thrown at my head by a religious school teacher ...... I more or less deserved it, no real harm was done and my parents didn't run to the school administration, they assumed right that I had been acting up and deserved punishment.
This kid needs to be charged with assault, then off to juvie hall.

It's nuts right? Remember when every classroom had a big ass paddle hanging over the black board? This shit just didn't happen. Talking back didn't happen. Raising your voice to the teacher didn't happen. Not following instructions didn't happen. "Demanding respect" didn't happen. Getting punished by the teacher was always preferred to what happened if you actually got sent to the principle. I remember seeing some violent shit too between teacher/students when things went to far and I don't remember ever not thinking "well idiot, all you had to do was shut your mouth". An incidentally, when a kid came home after a run in with the teacher or principle, there was a worse fate waiting for them.
The world is officially fucked.
