Kids- 8, 9 and 10 year olds - came up with an elaborate plan to harm their teacher. They intended to use paperweights to knock her out, duct tape her mouth and then stab her with a steak knife, and they had all items they needed in a backpack. Holy crap!

This must make it even tougher to be a teacher, which was already difficult. On the one hand you want to teach them problem solving and cooperation, but on the other hand you have to wonder if they'll use that against you.
