The mom is a PIG.....not the same last name either....typical......MARRIED PARENTS have less problems than divorced and re-married, as a rule.
Yep. We are being Mexicanized too.
How about a state law banning idiot school administrators instead?
That's not the lesson, lady.
The lesson is: Never Trust Government.
Government schools are virtually the same everywhere...
My country has become a bad, 1960s "B" movie. Aren't the people currently running the country the same morons we saw running around naked and covered with mud at Woodstock "questioning authority"?
It is more the foolishness of public school employees than it is the State I think.
While water is necessary for life, it really does not have any “nutritional” value.
Stay away from the drinking fountain at that school.
Doin hard time for runnin hard candy.
Jolly Ranchers are hardly junk food. They’re probably the least unhealthy candy.
But that’s quite beside the point—even if the kid had a Snickers (Gasp! The horror!), that’s no reason to treat him like he had a godd*mn joint.
I’m surprised more of these school “administrators” don’t get the snot kicked out of them.
“I think it’s stupid to give a kid a week’s worth of detention for a piece of candy,” said Amber Brazda, the girl’s mother. “The whole thing was just ridiculous to me.”
Oh wake up lady! It has nothing to do with the damn candy and EVERYTHING to do with your learning to C O M P L Y!
There is a lesson to be learned from this- school is a sentence to be served, disguised as a gift.
We’re going to have to some serious up-side-the-head slapping on ol Perry re; ObamaCare and Immigration Reform.
Public schools in the US are doomed unless the NEA and teachers unions are destroyed and the ED (US Department of Education) is abolished. The previous worst president in American history (Jimmy Carter) created the beast that is the ED in 1979 (it actually took effect in Spring, 1980): It effectively eliminated any local control of public schools, and public schools have been in a freefall ever since.
Here it is - the wake up call - Don’t blame the enforcers !
Blame the jackasses that foisted that POS rule on them !
Of course the jackasses put in wiggle room wording to cover their own asses so they can leave blame behind on the enforcers.
Bunch of BS.
These people need to be terminated, lots of terminations in the public “education” arena. They’ve gone way past reasonableness. Even my generation had some issues with overreactions but this is ridiculous. Good grief.
Clean house.
Schools are run by leftists no matter where you live. Even Utah.
D*mn RINO Perry. I wouldn’t have voted for him had we had a true Conservative to choose from other than the Ron Paul truther nutter Debra Medina and the treacherous WA Rino Kay Bailey Hutchison. We’ll really have to keep on his a$$.
This is not a terrible punishment, especially if weaker penalties fail to impress other students. She does not have to stay after school. She can quietly read her bible or meditate on her behavior during detention.
It seems silly to take away a childs candy and punish her, especially if she had an otherwise nutritious lunch. It is none of their business, IMO. It is her parents business, not Obama's.
