Governments and schools forbidding it is NOT normal. "With an eye made quiet by the power of harmony and the deep power of joy, we see into the life of things." William Wordsworth And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe—the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God. John F. Kennedy Inaugural Address Lincoln's economic advisor Henry C. Carey explained the universal issue in his 1851 Harmony of Interests: "Two systems are before the world.... One looks to pauperism, ignorance, depopulation, and barbarism; the other to increasing wealth, comfort, intelligence, combination of action, and civilization. One looks towards universal war; the other towards universal peace. One is the English system; the other ... the American system, for ... elevating while equalizing the condition of man throughout the world." "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 907390[link to www.mlive.com] ....They suspended Mason until Friday, saying the behavior made other students uncomfortable, said Erin Jammer, Mason's mother. School officials allege Mason had displayed this kind of behavior for several months, despite numerous warnings. ..... Note that the child and the mother were requested to have the behavior several times prior to the child being suspended. After the first 3 or 4 times and the behavior continued what did you want the school to do? I agree it is a VERY STUPID thing to get upset about, but if someone requests that you stop a certain behavior several times and you don't do anything to stop it I have no empathy. Kids making finger guns and going bang bang, is normal. Quoting: DanG 878191Governments and schools forbidding it is NOT normal. DING Again, see above. The child was told to stop this behavior several times and the child continued the behavior. Everyone bitches that the schools are unruly and discipline is not enforced, yada, yada, yada but when the schools do finally enforce a rule (albeit, I agree that such a simple gesture is a stupid rule) everyone gets their panties in a wad. My kids would not have been offended or scared by such a gesture nor would I have been, but there is probably some pantywaist liberal parent who teaches their child to get offended or scared by the slightest gesture that pushed the issue. Bottom line is...the mom did not do her job to have her child stop making such a gesture at school. If it were my child, after the first warning I would have told him that there are some people who like to cry about anything and everything, the teacher/principle has asked that you not make that gesture. If you do it again you can't ride your bike (or another appropriate ban on the child's favorite toy). Second time, he was warned I would have sat down with him and had him write an apology letter and banned another toy. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 907390[link to www.mlive.com] Ionia kindergartener suspended for making gun with hand By Brian McVicar The Grand Rapids Press March 04, 2010, 10:39PM IONIA -- To the little boy's mother, it was just a 6-year-old boy playing around. But when Mason Jammer, a kindergarten student at Jefferson Elementary in Ionia, curled his fist into the shape of a gun Wednesday and pointed it at another student, school officials said it was no laughing matter. They suspended Mason until Friday, saying the behavior made other students uncomfortable, said Erin Jammer, Mason's mother. School officials allege Mason had displayed this kind of behavior for several months, despite numerous warnings. "I do think it's too harsh for a six-year-old," said Jammer, who was previously warned that if Mason continued the practice he would be suspended. "He's six and he just likes to play." Jammer says her son isn't violent, and there are other, more effective ways of teaching him not to make a gun with his hand. "Maybe what you could do is take his recess away," suggested Jammer, adding her son doesn't have toy guns at home. "He's only six and he doesn't understand any of this." What if there was a shotgun up his sleeve? Ever think of that? Can't be too careful in a post 9/11 world. They should give his parents the death penalty. It is a great day to be alive! |
