God bless you...having a house full of rambunctious Tigers would be more than I could bear ...it’d put me over the edge!
Good luck to your pre-eagles. It’s a wonderful experience and looks great on a resume.
The Cubs meet at church ... I have ten Tigers, if they all come.
I have 16 in my first-grade Sunday School class ... but they’re not all boys.
Well, I know I’d be scared if I saw one flying towards me. So perhaps he is correct.
But I wonder why, if he had some classmates who were also in his troop, didn't they say something to his troop leader? The leader might have been able to talk to the kid, and help him through whatever was going on, or at least steer him toward some help.
I don’t know. Many adults assume the school will keep things from reaching a disastrous level, although I don’t know why, and other students don’t want to be snitches. I can still name and describe the people I would happily have killed when I was in school, say around 1980, if I’d thought I’d get away with it.
If I had been a kid with no family life worth mentioning, I might have decided going out with a blaze was worth it.
But we have to have a boogeyman to blame !!!
From what I read, this is what I would think happened.
Kid was bullied and had enough. He decided to come and either scare or actually harm the bullies. The cop found out and the kid, out of fear of being caught, stabbed him.
It happens a lot when a desperate person feels trapped.
Also notice the posters were calling him a “counselor” when the 1st sentence calls him an SRO.
And the NCAA has a no cheating policy, too.
