Hello folks! I’m here from the Oklahoma state legislature...
I sure her husband will step in. The boys’ father will set them straight.
I’d like to hear the teacher’s side of the story before I decide it’s definitely racism. Hey, maybe it is. But I like the facts, and not just from one side.
Sounds like you must be raising him up right
I saw this article somewhere, weeks ago. I can’t remember where.
He’s a victim of creeping weenie-ism.
Just be sure he wears a helmet while he rides his tricycle and takes up soccer.
And, whatever you do, don’t let him have a cap pistol!!!
He will be a monster by the time he is in junior high and juvenile hall instead of high school.
I did not want that for JJ and Joah. I did not want it for any child.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The mother is an idiot for institutionalizing children so young that they still need help using the bathroom.
Would someone please stay home and raise this child with love and care and quit leaving childrearing up to others.
I think this has as much to do with the true War on Boys than it does with race.
I am intolerant of the tolerant brigade. Boys are rough. They break things, they yell ,they wrestle, they fight. That is how they become men. That is how they react to the World. What we are raising is sissies and that is dangerous in the long run.
My kids are constantly fighting wit each other. When they are not hugging and protecting one another from others.
Best advise. Down size your life. Used cars are just as good as new. A smaller house Is just as much a house as the 4,500 SQ’ McMansion. Hell you probably have only one or two kids anyway. Make dinner at home, don’t eat out. Quit your job. Become a one income household. Stay at home and don’t send your kids to pre-school. They will learn more from you than from the best most expensive pre-school anyway.
Work is way over rated. You will have the rest of your life to work, so will your kids.
Jr needs some discipline me thinks.
Kid throws a chair...stop righ there. Kid deserves to be kicked-out of school.
The fix is call Pain Association Therapy. When applied in earnest and frequently it corrects a whole lot of bad behavior. If applied early in the child’s life, it will not have to be applied forcefully at a later date.
Probably not 1% of the people on this forum were suspended in preschool, and most never suspended at all during elementary & secondary education. Yet her sons receive eight just in preschool. There are dogs not barking on this one. Guarantee you something isn't right in that household, and it begins with Mrs. Powell. Plus, the details of each suspension are not given. I'll bet the preschool staff would have a lot to say, but betcha they've been threatened with their jobs if they do.
Blacks are 12% of the U.S. population, and yet commit 70-75% of violent crimes. Guarantee you that's not racism, but a completely broken down culture among blacks. Civil society doesn't exist in many black areas. Yes, a lot of it due to the 80% black out-of-wedlock births and fatherless homes. But who do you see filmed fighting and trashing fast food restaurants, or getting into it on buses & trains with regularity? It's not the black males.
Won't happen, but Mrs. Powell needs to stow away her race card, and have her husband get out the leather belt.
feh...Different generation. If I would have been suspended for hitting a teacher (not that it would have happened because I would have gone to the principal’s office where he would have swatted me enough to get that violence out of my head) I would have gone home to face the wrath of my parents. Throughout school swats kept us on the straight and narrow. I will admit now that I was the recipient of many life straightening remedies.
I was kicked out of preschool for smoking.....the teacher’s back tires. She left her keys in her purse in the drawer of her desk where any kid could accidentally find them.
Oh...how they label you when you’re young. “Menace to society!” “Juvenile delinquent!” “Potential Republican!”
Save your “A, B, Cs” Mrs Pepper. The three letters I wanted were “GTO”!
While the other kids had nap time, I was out in the teachers parking lot trying to hotwire a Mustang.
Yeah.....I did a little time in The Big House.....the Principal’s office. He left his keys in his overcoat. Did you know those old Pontiacs could do 50 in reverse? Well, I knew it. So did the police.
They tried everything to stop me. Roadblocks. Shooting out the tires. Threatening to tell my Dad. He got a kick out of it. He started calling me “Speedy”.
Okay. Bypassing the racial argument entirely, why are suspensions and expulsions from preschool (short of seriously heinous behavior, rather than garden-variety acting out like what’s mentioned here) not absurd in the first place?
“A recent study published by the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology found that the subjects — mostly white, female undergraduates — viewed black boys as older and less innocent than their white peers. “
But of course this is what it’s ALL about....
