Good grief..
Silly parent . . . doesn’t she know that she has no First Amendment rights when confronting public officials
Mom, get yourself a good lawyer, and sue the pants off them, including the dumba$$ cop!
Superintendent Joseph Luongo says it was a fair question, "I had to find out what body parts were actually revealed."
I don't have a 13-year-old daughter, but if I were in that mother's position, I'm pretty sure they would be charging me with more than just cursing at the guy.
ping...
Nothing new under sharia law. She’s lucky she wasn’t stoned to death for forcing the man hand upon her.
Since when is cussing out an agent of the govt. “disorderly conduct”?
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
The principal had it coming.
Again, this is not an offense that deserves an arrest.
Do they arrest and charge all the kids that cuss and swear at each other in the halls?
What about the kids who cuss a teacher out to his or her face?
What about arresting the principal and charging him as a sexual offender for his questions about her daughter?
Why are public school officials immune to the consequences of behavior that would land anyone else in jail, or have kids taken from their parents by social services?
“School officials said the meeting wasn’t the place for Schwalb to express her concerns.”
Of course not. No need for everybody at the meeting to know what is going on at school. The right place is a private office where you can express your concerns, but nothing will be done. That’s what the school admin wants to do for you...nothing.
The board sounds like a bunch of Obama voters that need to be taught a lesson.
There is no law against swearing. I’m assuming there is more to this story.
With the way the Mom used the forum, I'd say it's a high probability.
That said, this is a mess. It's a lawyers field day. I'm not a judge, but in our area a kid could have been sued for sexual harassment over this. People had better be careful before they conclude anything. Too much is not clear.
Why would an adult want to know if a child was wearing a thong? That is questionable AT BEST. She needs to get her daughter out of that school.
And jackass school superintendents should be smarter than to ask what kind of underwear the girl was wearing. Makes him sound like some kind of a perv. Why didn’t the cop advise the mother to bring charges?
The county school superintendent might be investigating this to see if the school ignored state harrassment policies. What a bunch of imbeciles.
My Mother used to curse me on behalf of the Principal. But none of my Principals acted like pedophiles at school board meetings.
Hoping the Mom sues the heck out of the district... then uses the money to send her kid to private school and laugh the rest of the way to the bank!
I would think you would usually have a meeting to be able to express you concerns to someone.
How dare she question her masters. Nevermind if the kid had on a thong or not. Only a moron would think it would even matter to the situation and only a pervert would want to know the answer.
