This just in from the WTF zone . . . Some students who defaced school property were forced to clean toilets as a punishment. Some parents are in an uproar and the department of education is now investigating. Read the story here.
One parent stated "They're here to get an education, not to learn how to do janitorial work."
Point taken.
However, if little Mr. Troublemaker is not made to face some consequences for his serious transgressions, he will likely end up behind bars. Schools are required by law to admit children and children are required to attend. There must be some consequences for bad behavior or anarchy rules and education diminishes. My guess is that the parents who oppose the punishment handed down by the Dean of the school have no control over their little princes and princesses. Then their undisciplined kids become a problem for everyone at school.
And as a side note, when did it become a crime to do a little hard or dirty work? The kids who are following the rules do not have to do these tasks.
What do you think?
