Safrit said her son’s teacher told her the mouth-taping was done in jest after she jokingly told another student the only way to keep the student quiet was to tape his mouth shut. “Then she said the rest of the kids thought it was funny and asked to have their mouths taped, too,” said Safrit, adding that her son was not upset.
