Mods…please delete if this is not permitted

I am curious about others ideas on stocks or ADRs (not ETFs). I will share mine…please reciprocate. Please keep it about quality companies not just high risk, high yield stocks.

My top 5 in no particular order with their dividend yield:

KNTK - Kinetic Holdings: 6.36% (O+G pipelines w/o the tax filing burden of owning an LP)

BMY - Bristol Meyers Squib: 4.44% (pharma)

MO - Altria: 5.86% (tobacco)

VZ - Verizon: 6.01% (communications)

ANZGY - ANZ Group: 4.53% (bank holding company, primarily Australia)

Note: I don’t like too many stocks in the same industry because they all can take a dump at the same time.

So…my son, who is a soon to graduate Senior and happens to be making A in the AP class where this happened, was called dumb in front of the whole class by his teacher. Not a passing “that was dumb” but to the whole class “do not be dumb like <insert name>”.

This teacher has had numerous complaints over the last 2 years about becoming verbally abusive to students when he gets frustrated. The admins have done nothing about it. Interested in this subreddit’s advice on how to handle. On principle I cannot let this one go.

UPDATE: Just to clarify…I honestly want my son to be the one going to the admins with this, not me or his mother. He is off on his own at college in a few months…HE needs to be the one not letting this go. He came to me asking “how do I handle this”.
