(KMOV) – Administrators at a north St. Louis school have banned a student’s grandmother from stepping foot on the campus or else risk arrest.

The incident began when the grandmother, Joyce Hall, said she was trying to stand up for her 6-year-old grandson against bullying.

Hall said her grandson, Brandon, was having a tough time at Nance Elementary so she complained in letters sent to the school, demanding action for him.

A district spokesperson told News 4 that “No Trespassing” orders are issued against people who pose a potential threat to students or staff at a school.

Well, except for the bully thug kids and their enablers who bully under color of authority.

So parents are now considered a threat to their own children and grandchildren?

As I posted the other day, since when did school policy attain the force of law?

Schools hold events and crap to “combat bullying” but actually trying to stop it gets you in trouble

That's what they claim but of course it's the threats to the evil workings of beast.edu that they are trying to keep out.

As I posted the other day, since when did school policy attain the force of law?

When they decided to be a law unto themselves like the good lawless demoncrat bullies that they are. All's swell with smiles on their faces until a parent catches on and complains. Duplicity is a key character trait for these freaks.

put saying anything against “common core” and you will get all the whores and pimps in the school system against you too and your children will be marked for lower grades!

Bullying is a problem because Liberals allow it to happen

Whether it is Conflict Resolution nonsense, or any other crazy program....Liberals have led to the increase of bullying

Bullying was best handled by putting your fist against a bullys jaw or lip...a fat lip and busted jaw almost always cured bullying

“Another reason to homeschool.”

Or find a great private school. My eldest went to a public school, as did my younger ones for awhile. And we do live in a pretty good public school district. I always said I had little problems with the teachers, but some of the kids were another matter.

We switched the younger kids to a wonderful Christian Academy where they thrived. They’ve all graduated now, but this weekend we revisited there to see a play. There we spoke to an older man, who came to see his granddaughter in the play. They were a black family. He couldn’t quit saying how thankful he was for this school and how it changed lives. It does. These kids are courageous and unyielding in their faith. They keep each other accountable. There is some hope on the horizon.

The grandmother is — sure enough — wearing her obama t-shirt in the source video interview. Oh rich big gov’t irony. D’ya think she gets it?

And it’s the “educators” that lead the stats in child abuse.

That's rich! Thanks... I missed that because my settings just showed a blank space on the page. No text indicating a video. Thought it was a photo. To paraphrase those Obamacare victims, "I was all for government bullying until I realized that I'd be paying for it personally."

Yep! It’s so good that she is involved with her grandson and that she is taking the school to task. But how many more dots have to be in place for people like her to connect to big gov?

Sadly, the home is still #1 in sexual and physical abuse.

These days I would imagine that scene in Ms. Hogarth’s office in the film Uncle Buck would result in a body cavity search of John Candy.

We had the same problem many years ago.

I tried several different methods to get through to the idiot principal that he had to deal with the bully (male) who was beating up my daughter.

Nothing worked, until this:

I just quieted down, and an a very calm, low, sinister voice, told him approximately the following:

All right then. I know how to file a law suit. I don't have to hire a lawyer. You will if you want to win.

I will be suing you for aiding and abetting physical assault upon my daughter and malfeasance.

I will be suing you, personally, not the school district.

Chances are, since you will be hiring a lawyer and paying for him, I will lose. I don't care.

Because during the lawsuit I will be attaching every asset you own, you won't even write a check without going through me.

You can forget about sending your kids to college, I will control that money.

I will drag the suit out with motions for as long as I can, at least five to ten years.

Now, are you going to do your job, or am I walking a block to the courthouse, next door?

I was amazed at how well this worked. The bully even apologized to my daughter and they became sort of friends.
