I taught my children (all girls) to stand up to bullies. My oldest daughter beat up a boy on the bus that would not stop bullying a disabled child. Yes she was suspended because of the “zero tolerance” BS but we told her she was a hero. The parents should not get hung up on the idea that their child should never get in trouble; but need to really look at each situation. The schools can be wrong, and the longer liberals are in charge of education the more likely the school is wrong.
Good for your daughter, Tammy! A suspension? So what... it doesn’t go on her “high school to college transcripts”. It really isn’t what it was like when I was a kid (meaning only reserved for serious offenses and really for “bad” kids). Your daughter showed her character. She showed her compassion. She showed her humanity. My family would have taken it like a “Badge of Honor” because she was honorable. (plus, she would have gotten a lunch at IHOP (my gals favorite) and a mani-pedi. Good job at being a Mommy, T. Your work showed that day. :)
