Non Mopar rant! High school politics.

Schools now a days are brutal. Kids are told to turn the other cheek. I understand the non-violence and bullying, but you also should be taught to stand up for yourself. My kids have been suspended numerous times for standing up for themselves. I have always explained to them that there are rules to follow and there are consequences for breaking them. But dont expect harsh punishment from me when my kids are defending themselves. Christ I remember I had a teacher in grade 7 or 8, that had enough of a kid talking in class, the kid was a loud mouth and was constantly doing it, but the teacher would wind up from the front of the class (loudmouth sat at the back) and he would fire and I mean FIRE a piece of chalk at the kid!! He never hit the kid, but that teacher could have pitched in the big leagues for sure, cuz he would let er rip at about 90 mph!! He did that about 3 times before the loudmouth got the hint!! Yep now a days teachers dont want to be accountable, or involved in jacksquat. Glad to see your son got his calculator back. Tell him to permanently mark EVERYTHING with his name and ph# on it.
