You know, I've worked in group homes for the mentally and physically handicapped and if I was to stop any of them from exercising their right to eliminate I could be brought up on abuse charges. Our children deserve the same respect. The schools need an overhaul.

Today if a parent refused to let his kid use the bathroom, he would be brought up on abuse charges.
It amazes me that if a parent hits a kid and that kid winds up in the hospital, he gets charged, but in some states, if a teacher or school official hits a kid and that kid winds up in a hospital, it's no big deal.
There are so many problems with public schools today that they are probably beyond being "overhauled." Parents and students aren't happy, teachers aren't happy -- just give the parents the money and let them choose where the kids go to school. They can hire the teachers they want to educate their kids. It's a win-win situation.
