I hate to write this, being a fan of Young Sheldon, and its cast but this script should have been binned before production.
What we are invited to enjoy is a 12 year old boy being ruthlessly bullied by his teacher. I'm afraid the incident is tantamount to Child abuse.
I accept we are expected to believe that Sheldon is at University without a Chaperone - most unlikely when 12 year old Ruth Lawrence entered Oxford University to study Maths in 1989, she was chaperoned until graduation; but for a professor to treat him that way. Sorry , I can't see the humour. Even more disturbing was the scene where the President and professor belittle his physical anguish. I sorry, but if I was George Cooper I wouldn't just chat to Sheldon's teacher I would probably smack him one for his abusive behaviour.
