Alexa if it were me i would just let the lads thrash each other... just walk away...
because of the restraint issue...
you can't even put a hand on a student's shoulder..
it is so frustrating when you have some kid sobbing and you can't comfort them... its awful

today i said i was tired after class and one of the girls put her arm around me and was chatting to me and then another one on the other side...
it was really nice... much better here.
