Well, I was right. You DO get more of what you count, and
there are apparently no reasonable adults in charge of schools any more. This
just in:
“Children
as young as kindergarten-age could face misdemeanor charges for bullying under
a proposed law advancing in a Southern California city.
The
Carson City Council gave preliminary approval this week to an ordinance aimed
at persons, including other youths, who cause anyone from kindergarten to age
25 to feel terrorized, harassed or threatened with no legitimate purpose.”

Before I go on, let’s pause for a moment to consider that
last sentence – “…with no legitimate purpose.” So, you can terrorize, harass,
or threaten if you DO have a legitimate purpose.
This should not be done to a person with a head injury. It
makes a buzzing sound when sheer stupidity hits my neurons.
Are you telling me that there are no teachers or parents (or
city council members) who are able to manage school children who are
misbehaving? It now must be done by coming up with a statute that will make ANY
of these people do their jobs?
Is NO ONE raising their own children with values and (dare I
use the word?) morals so they behave themselves, more or less, until they are
what we now call adults?
What we are seeing is the codification of ALL behavior, so
that no one is responsible for managing their own families.
Shame on all of them. How foolish we have become.
We have stopped making them accept responsibility for their actions. Tyler Perry is correct when he says we need more more grandmothers/aunts/village participants called Medea. OR maybe just a good old fashion pop on the butt.
