A picture of “pi** Christ would have probably earned bonus points.
Several years ago, my 8th grade son had just returned from a trip up north with Dad and uncles. They taught him to shoot several different types of guns. Interested in this new hobby, he announced he wanted to find a book on guns in the library. Mind you, he was a mainstreamed Asperger’s/ADHD child, with 1 hour of special ed class as support everyday in addition to his regular ed classes. At the following IED, his special ed teacher remarked how much this attention to guns concerned her, but no mention of the fact he was failing almost every class he was in!!! My decision to homeschool was made right then and there. He’s currently pursuing a degree in computer programming at a local college, no thanks to publik screwls!!!
[not bad for a jarhead...]
I have my days! But more importantly, I have tried to work “in the system” and the system SUCKS! I have been on school boards and their sub-committees and they are a waste of good tax money! Most public schools (89%+) are a waste of good tax money!
The system is about separating you from your money! Think about this:
Less kids in a school means less money from the state/feds, so they need more money to continue to operate!
More kids in a school means they need more money for space/teachers/supplies in order to continue to operate!
School has failing grades, they need more money to provide better books/curriculum/etc.. to keep operating!
School has passing grades, they need more money to expand those programs to more kids in the school!
They NEVER ask for less money - NEVER EVER!
The same for police departments, fire departments, etc...
A few years back, our local police department “down sized” due to people moving out of the city. They asked for a larger budget so that they could get better and more training for those “stretched” officers that were left on the force! The city started growing again, so guess what!?!?! The police dept now needs more money to hire more cops!
The system is BROKEN beyond repair! Let’s melt it down and start over!
Of course, one rule of Islam and another for the rest of us infidels.
Zero tolerance equals zero common sense. My son would be sent home every time they asked him to draw something. He is always drawing knights killing dragons or somebody shooting something.
He is eight years old and loves guns, swords, bows, knives, slingshots. He is getting an cowboy rifle that shoots pellets for Christmas from my dad, http://www.visionforum.com/search/productdetail.aspx?search=rifle&productid=97762 . I heard my dad playing with it last night while I was talking to my mom. Boys never grow up. :)
Good for you!
I does seen most teachers, such is the like,are in much need of therapy themselves.
Our educational systems have become everything but educational systems!

it’s this way everywhere...non Christians have torn Christianity from public school with a vengeance...even here in Frnaklin TN
and the kids of whom 99% are Christian at least by birthright are tired of the polemics.
it is sickening..
And HH D4!
I hope that teacher is sterile, we need that DNA out of the gene pool.
Thanks! (And that is the cutest facepalm I have ever seen!)
I love ya...not in a queer way....great posting and that tagline is excellent
man...i fight these school asshats too...many teachers are just airheads parroting with heartfelt ignorance..even down here in Red Dixie
She is on Bing Images, and I picked her because she looks just like my late Tiger.
You’re welcome!
HOMESCHOOL YOUR CHILDREN!!! Where there is a WILL there is a WAY! Sacrifices must be made, but it is doable for EVERYONE — it’s all in the choices we make. I’ve heard of single parents who homeschool as well, so it’s not just for those of us lucky enough to have both parents in the home. You and your children may go “without” some things, but it is by far made up by the fact that you will be there for your children, they will KNOW you love them, and they will NOT be exposed to any of this propaganda going on in the schools.
My second choice would be private schooling if it can be afforded — again it’s all in the choices we make. Look into scholarships for private schooling as well - they ARE available, but not often advertised necessarily...
That’s the ONLY thing I can suggest to other parents at this point.
Psychological testing for drawing something so common within our society?? Words cannot express the sheer stupidity of all involved in suspending this child... Where is the ACLU - I know... don’t hold your breath!
