Kim we are going through a similar situation in my area with the HS sodomy case where the football players did a LOUIMA on their teammates. ALL i keep hearing is how noone says anything when the kids are good but one mistake and then WOOHOO.

Well one is expected to do good. What the guys did to their classmates is so severe that of course its big news.

The bottom line is like my tagline... and that is the reality. We are expected to do good and there is no praise in that, its just expected as normal.

FOLKS watch your kids and do your best. Once in a while something will go wrong just know you did your best.

What do I teach my kids....well if something were to happen to me or their father..you two have only each other in this world as the family unit so deal with it and like it as no one is going to love you as much as any of us will.

I also read that the kids dad was in france and his family was in brazil on some other story..sounds like there will be much more to this story.

Wow, that post hit me kind of hard. In this world, it should be the norm to "play nice"...but that topic could be turned into a religious issue really quick. :)

It makes me think about how we send our kids off to public school, and assume that discipline will be enforced...and kids are NOT given enough credit for doing the right things. But they sure are given a lot of heat for doing the wrong things..like staying after school for 3 HOURS if one is tardy 4 times in 6 weeks.
