We live in PG County and yes we are white. We had to put our 2 daughters in private school because the black children would tourture them. I sopke to the principal and she basically didnt care. I spoke to the bus lot and they didnt care this was going on either so my only option was to remove them from the situation and put them in private school. I must say they are getting a much better education now, but its not right that I still have to pay taxes to support these schools that my children cannot attend
Jessica,
My son is grown now but the same thing happened to him in elementary school. The black boys would call him racist names and push him around in the bathroom.
When I talked to the teacher she told me the black boy’s tale of woe, “druggie mother, raised by grandmother” etc.
I told her very sorry for his circumstances but MY son had the right to attend school without being bullied and called honky and other racist names.
I also told her he was NOT going to be their punching bag any longer and sometimes defending yourself looked like fighting. Said if he was sent to office for fighting while defending himself, she would be part of a court case for not protecting my son’s well being and his right to learn in a violence free setting.
But we left at the end of the year. And of course the behavior of those black students formed his opinion of blacks in general. The school system did those minority children no favors by ignoring and/or excusing bad behavior.
If you get a chance look on youtube at Wise HS fights or Largo HS fights. I would never subject my children to this and I cannot believe the schools are this poorly managed and the children are totally out of control. Its like the blind leading the blind
