Or it could be gorgeous and have just headbutted you in the nuts on purpose (not you personally, SG.), in which case it's crying would maybe not have quite the same emotional effect on a person....

I don't think ugliness would make much difference in this situation, but if the child habitually behaved in a nasty way, I think it would lessen the emotional impact on the teacher. I'm not saying that it would make it okay to have such a child crying, nor that such a child has any less rights. Just that it wouldn't push my emotional buttons as much.
Pig-ugly? Well, one of the lads in that class has already earned himself the unspoken nickname of Booger-boy, because he has not yet mastered tissue technology and wiping techniques. Bluerchchchch.
On dry days he isn't too bad though.
