I don't need to. I strongly suspect that the reason the girl was suspended was 1) ignoring repeated requests to stop due to 2) fear of liability.

Don't think for one minute that had that child injured herself, the parents wouldn't be filing a lawsuit. If anyone can sue another person for anything at any time, as you say, the school did the right thing.

The kid got what she deserved. And the taxpayers will be breathe a sigh of relief.

1. Unless there was a rule against doing gymnastics on the playground at lunch, the teacher had no authority to tell her to stop. I'm all for making the kids obey the rules and enforcing discipline in school but we should not be training them to be mindless automatons.

2. If we live by that theory, the kids will never be allowed to walk around.

That's a heck of an assumption knowing zilch about these people.
