No she won't be a drone but she could be the low paid CNA serving up your strained peas at the nursing home because she doesn't feel she has to follow the rules of any other position.
If she doesn't like where she is sitting on a job, does she take over the President's desk?
As I said, she should have gone to her dad the first time of the three (normally, verbal warning, written warning then detention - in due process) and tried to change it then. No matter how stupid the rules are, a parent will get farther with the administration if the kid is not pegged as a troublemaker.
Now he's suing, GREAT! Lawyer's fees that come out of the communities property taxes. Good Job!

Here's what I'd like to have seen. The students request a change in the rules. Ideally, the school would take them seriously and allow a change on an experimental basis. But if the school said no, then I'd be proud to see those kids engage in civil disobedience inside that school. On a given day all 267 of them walk in and peacefully sit where they like.

I find it bemusing in the extreme that the only time the gub'mint schools get support on these threads is when they're acting like Nazis.

(Please understand that gub'mint schools should have been abolished long ago, IMO.)
