Concept of the Morning

Why is it that whenever parents actually wake up at a decent time ,oh say six, they think that you are so late and that you will miss your bus? Then they check on you like every five minutes. So generally, after like 15 minutes of them screaming at you, you finally freak on them and say "MOM, I WAS READY 10 MINUTES AGO!" Do they not think that we do this every day, by OURSELVES! And then, most of them, have no concept of time in the morning. It is so annoying! And they wonder why you freak on them

Mission in Progress

Also, this is my first day with the blog, so I am still getting it all set up.

Students Punished for FB Group

Students Punished for Facebook Group

Students in my district have been punished for speaking their mind. Granted that some the things said, should not have been said, but I believe strongly in the 1st Amendment and the Right to Free Speech. Although the students spoke their opinion in a rude way, they shouldn't be punished for it. These students have the right to their own opinion and to speak it. Maybe, Dr Melvin should consider all ideas before punishing any of these children. Their parents should have taken some responsibility as to the fact that these students are just that children. Also, due to the fact that the incident occurred outside of school, the school district should not be included in any part of it. I feel that if it does not stop any body from attending school or work, then the school should not be involved. This incident should be taught, through the school, that all actions of consequences. I certainly think that this could have been handled in a different way.

I will post more if I feel it fit.
