Oh the humanity!! Hopefully the poor, widdle darling will never have to suffer the humiliation of discipline ever again!!

[TChris]

Oh the humanity!!

My thoughts, precisely!

What is the difference between this and sitting in the corner? School Administrators have no spines!

Weldon said sections of a cardboard box were put around her son's desk of her son,

WHAT!!!! And no ARM HOLES cut out!?!

[frogjerk]

Weldon complained to district officials and said her son was humiliated by "cruel and abusive treatment."

Adams said the district handled the situation properly.

"I think the situation was resolved," he said.

That's what you think. This litigious society demands a suit be filed for insane amounts of ca$h!

CHILES: "I know what I would do..."

"I don't care what any child does, "

I think I might have stumbled on part of the problem here...

Nice writing AP.

I spent most of my kindergarten days standing in a tight corner behind the upright piano. A cardboard box would have been cool.

I'm on the teacher's side on this one. It's the parent and school administrators who are the idiots here. This is making me feel my age (48). When I was in school paddling by the teachers was allowed and my Dad gave them permission to do so to me.

[Larry Lucido]

At least it wasn't the ultimate punishment: cardboard panties.

[Choose Ye This Day]

Oh, good grief! When did parents lose their spines?

Kudos to the teacher for showing creativity and finding an appropriate, effective solution to a behavior problem.

When I was a kid teachers put me behind cardboard till the cows came home. Sometimes even barbed wire and once i was even bricked into my desk.

She should have sent him to the principals office, and then his parents called and let his father tan his hide with a belt.
I had a teacher that would stab you with a sharpened pencil and draw blood for such an offense as talking in class.
Civility must be maintained in the clssroom, but I doubt that this little twerp sitting his cardboard cell contributed to civility.
All the other kids were probably snickering and tossing spit balls over the top of it, he should have been removed from the class ASAP.
Would you be happier if she pulled out a saturday night special and given the little bastard two in the hat?

[TheSpottedOwl]

I think the teacher should be named, "Teacher of the Year"! What a great idea to stop a student from disrupting the class. Mommy needs a time out and a pill.

[Reaganesque]

Good thing she didn't put him in the...gasp...comfy chair!!
