I'm stunned at the amount of posters on this thread who think it's ok when the schools we are required to pay for and send our children to put a limit on one of our most basic human needs.

I have children in all 3 schools, elementary, middle and high, they do not have enough time in between classes to use the rest room and get to class.
Our schools are overcrowded and all classes exchange at the same time. Thats alot of kids hitting the stalls at one time...and the girls restrooms are severly under equipped to handle the running of the bulls, so those who don't get there first are out of luck at waiting for an opening, using and getting to class on time.

I couldn't imagine being a teenage girl with her period in school now, not to mention the health risks. Good Lord, we've let them turn our schools into a nazi boot camp... we pay them to abuse our children and some of the hard core people here see absolutely nothing wrong with our schools putting a limit on how many times our children can pee.

I can hardly sing our National Anthemn anymore without choking over the words "O'er the land of the free".....

Another problem is that many middle school girls' (don't know about guys') bathrooms are filthy- soiled feminine products, blood, and urine all around the toilets. When I went to middle and high school there were some stalls with no doors and soap was a luxury. Part of it is the schools but girls also need to learn from their mothers how to deal with their used feminine products and basic cleanliness and consideration of others.

Good Lord,...we pay them to abuse our children...

You'd think it would register, finally, wouldn't you?

I look to the kids to end it.
