ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

equating the reactions to a a 6 year old child with the reactions to rapists????

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Thu Jan 3, 2013, 04:26 PM, and the Jury voted 0-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Please take a deep breath. It'll be ok.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: False equivalency by the alerter.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Jeez, I got what he meant. He meant that if you're going to over-penalize the small stuff, it encourages the kid to try the big stuff.

Really, misunderstanding here.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
