IS THIS BULLSHIT OR APPROPRIATE?

[Duchess]

Have you come across more on the story Duchess? I haven't been able to find the blog/stories or any more than I posted yesterday.

So far, the only adult I've seen defending the kid is his father. The others adults in the story, at least the ones that I've read about, are the parents of the other students, the school board members, and LE reps.

The other parents are protesting, the school board members are making it clear that their hands are legally tied and it's a police matter, and LE is investigating the kid.

I'd really like to read what the kid wrote and find out who evaluated him, who asked for the evaluation, and what the evaluation determined/concluded.

It's sad that a whole lot of kids are being denied their education because they're afraid to go to school and there's apparently nothing the school can do, at present, to removed the perceived danger.


P.s. refusing to let the girl attend prom if she wears a tux is idiotic.

No, I haven't read more about it.

It is my view that all who were involved in the decision to allow this kid to return to school are in a sense, defending him. Why, in this day & age of school violence/mass shootings/killings would they allow him to return? There are many school districts right now who have a zero tolerance policy in regards to this kind of thing, kids have been expelled for doing nothing more than wearing a provocative t-shirt.

Not that most parents would let this see the light of day but what if these stories had been found written in a journal that was hidden under his mattress? People would gasp and say, oh thank Gawd, we found it in the nick of time.

Legally, it would seem to me that schools are granted leeway in who is allowed on school property. I do not understand the school's stance on this. A personal blog is different than a screen print on a t-shirt or a drawing in a notebook? Those are both things that have resulted in the kid/s not being allowed back to school.
