| 117. What happened to age-appropriate discipline? |
|
Too many unanswered questions. Given the scant details:
Expulsion at 6 seems to be severe for a behavioral issue that I think was correctable with parent and school intervention.
The other disturbing aspect is all the attention given to negative behavior. Why are security guards needed for behavioral issues? Where was a school psychologist? Not enough of them, eh?
What would have been appropriate punishment for a kid in first grade for only 3-4 months? Taser? Lethal injection?
