This is what happens when you have to put the paddle away and rely on lawyers.

You can lock them up in jail but using a paddle on them would be cruel.

Earlier in the morning, school officials said the boy had taken his medication, Irwin said.Lord knows how many dead we'd have on our hands if the system hadn't seen fit to drug him into zombiehood.

We need tougher legislation! Safety locks on pencils! The NRA won't get away with this one!

"Earlier in the morning, school officials said the boy had taken his medication, Irwin said. She didn't know what kind of medication the boy was taking."Oh, let me guess.

This kid doesn't need psychotropic drugs.
He doesn't need counseling or a therapist.
He doesn't need to be charged with a felony - for cryin' friggin' out loud!
What this kid needs is a good spanking!
If he had been getting spankings all along, he wouldn't be in this mess.
The parents (both of them) should be the ones in trouble for messin' up this seven-year-old.
He who spares the rod hates his son,
he who loves him is careful to discipline him.

This is what happens when you force an end to segregation, despite the desires of all involved. What does this have to do with anything

"....What this kid needs is a good spanking!...."
Exactly. I have 6 children, never had to raise a hand to any of them....except one.
That ONE, as you can well guess, simply has a mind of his own and is extremely headstrong. We went through the whole teacher/Ritalin thing (horrible decision...took him off after 2 years, thank God).
What he really needed was a good old fashioned trip to the woodshed...which he got.
Today (5 years after the woodshed) he's a great kid. And yes, he's a little afraid of me. But that's OK. We all need to submit to some type of authority, either in this life or the next. My son was totally fearless.
I think God ordained parental control as his extension of an orderly universe.

Children of parents who "spare the rod"
will not be spared by the police and the court system when they grow up.

What does this have to do with anything Hey, now - Tabby's doing a lot better these days than she used to. This is the second post of hers in as many days where she didn't manage to tie the thread into abortion somehow. Must be some new meds...
I kid because I love.... ;)

Couldn't agree with you more.

It's good to be a little of someone who ...
... is responsible for your existence
... is bigger than you
... is older than you
... provides for your every need
... provides some of the things you want
... has the responsibility of helping you develop into a responsible adult
... is responsible for supporting you for approximately 20 years
... etc.

You are all missing the bigger picture. The article clearly states that the class was being supervised by a substitute teacher! I´m only 20, so my days of elementary schools subs were not long ago . . . they never have ANY control! Haven´t any of you ever read the great kids´ book, ´´100 Ways to Sink a Sub´´? I think it´s 100 . . . I can´t really remember. But anyway, it´s a great book.
