There was a story back in March 2008
in the Gulf News that the Apple International School (AIS) librarian was assaulted on 10 March 2008 by the family of a grade 3 student, after a school supervisor had asked the parents to come in for a meeting about the pupil, who had been reprimanded by the librarian. And I always thought being a librarian was such a peaceful career option

The pupil's mother, grandmother and domestic help burst into her classroom while she was teaching and assaulted her causing the teacher to faint. The incident took place on March 10 at The Apple International School which caters to the British curriculum and is located in Al Ghusais. Nita Maitra, the principal of the school confirmed the incident and said that she was shocked by what had happened and the effect it would have on the staff and the pupils who witnessed it.
"After a while when I was busy attending to Grade 6 pupils, the mother, the grandmother along with their domestic help of the pupil rushed into my class. In the beginning the domestic help tried to push and pull me around, and then the mother and the grandmother started to slap me on my cheek. They were also shouting at me at the same time. This happened in front of the Grade 6 pupils. I just fainted and the next thing that I remember was being carried on a stretcher and being taken to hospital," said the librarian.
