The parent need to get off there ass and take back the schools.


WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Obama administration on Wednesday pressed the nation's schools to abandon what it described as overly zealous discipline policies that send students to court instead of the principal's office. Even before the announcement, school districts around the country have been taking action to adjust the policies that disproportionately affect minority students.

Attorney General Eric Holder said problems often stem from well intentioned "zero-tolerance" policies that can inject the criminal justice system into school matters.

"A routine school disciplinary infraction should land a student in the principal's office, not in a police precinct," Holder said.

But it's about race, too, the government said in a letter accompanying the new guidelines it issued Wednesday.

Once they stopped letting teachers whip those kids' asses when they acted up, it all went to hell.

Most of the kids nowadays need to get their asses whipped and some need to get it on a regular basis.

And that was just the first one because there was another awaiting me at home.

I do agree these issues should be handled by the school in most cases using judgment. Therein lies the problem. Too many public school administrators and teachers are not capable of exercising good judgment.
