Only in a way do I agree. If all of the kids are getting their privileges taken away from them, that will only then include the kids who are not even the problem and, in my opinion, that is not fair.

God bless you and them always!!!

I can only assume there were more than a couple acting up. If they were behaving poorly as a group, they should be punished as a group I suspect there weren't enough nonparticipants to field a team anyway. My opinion was based on the available information. Further information could change my mind.

Is that what you saw last time you were in one?

Wow! That sucks totally!

What the hell is this world coming to?

Since when is athletics a privilege?

They always have been. This is a dangerous world we live in...

Well, to be fair, the last time I was in a public school, was about 15 years ago…I know not every school is like this, but we do read, and see more and more how they are deteriorating. Kids today are NOT being taught respect for authority, and teachers, as well as students are left feeling unsafe at school.

We have to take politics OUT our primary education. How many classrooms today have teachers displaying left, or socialist memes on their walls?

If we have progressive left teachers teaching that THEY are the truth, and undermining the family, we shouldn’t be surprised when minor children become a behavioral nightmare.

You declare after never having set foot in a school for 15 years.

My kids graduated 15 years ago.

We don't have that.

Not what we see in the news.

 

[Unkotare]

My kids graduated 15 years ago.

So, much longer than that. Ok.

 

[Unkotare]

I'm telling you what I see every day with my own two eyes. You realize the news wants you to hyperventilate, right? That keeps your eyes on the screen and subject to advertising.

What’s that supposed to mean?

You do realize that your experience is anecdotal, right?

I bet you think polar bears are cuddly and hugable....You have a pathogen on yer gut there buddy.

Athletics is not a privilege and has not been disallowed. They can still participate in exercise and training. They are only denied the privilege of competing with other teams in any sport.

 

[Unkotare]

What’s that supposed to mean?

It means you are basing your "certainty" about what goes on in schools every day on nothing but sensationalist media stories.

You realize that just because you read a story about some lady finding an airplane part in her back yard that it is not raining airplane parts in everyone's back yard, right?
