| Well, I would be terrified if my kid saw rx and designer drugs being sold in school. The thought of my kids being exposed to these drugs is more terrifying than the thought of them witnessing a few fights. |
| Bitches be trippin.' |
I went to private. top notch drugs there - $$$$ |
Yea, and that's a hell of a lot scarier to me than a few MSers getting into fights. |
| I went to a suburban middle school in another state, probably 85% white and I never once witnessed a fight in school. TPMS is trash. |
Riiiiiight. You keep telling yourself that. I rather my kid go to ghetto trash school with gangs and fights than a rich school with some kids selling drugs. News Flash: Drugs are in poor schools too. |
And yet, another PP stated they went to a majority white school and saw fights. You think white people don't fight? lol! |
Yes, but rich kids have more access to drugs, and more money to spend on them. And tpms is not infested with gangs. Plus, those rich schools have other issues, too, that I don't want my kids to be around. BTW, I went to a MS and HS where there were fights, and the only drug I saw was pot, once. The schools were middle/low income, and most of the kids didn't have the money to buy the more expensive drugs. So yea, I'd rather my kids go to a school where there may be a fight or two, but not where there is such easy access to drugs. |

DD and DS go there. Not report of epic brawl. Seems like a TP hating troll is on the loose again.

Trumpism alive and well in all MCPS middle schools and the homes of their students.
Teenagers don't fight, only gun bearing cops, and the rest of our gun worshiping society. Most of these idiots are adults. What do you expect from the progeny they spawn? |
| DH and I talked tonight about transferring out of TP if this continues. We aren't sending our kid to school in what sounds like Mosul. |
I can't believe the parents who are pooh-poohing this. The girl's reaction is NORMAL and HEALTHY. We don't want our kids to be desensitized to violence. Of course it was upsetting, and even more upsettin if the admin did nothing. |

I was in a few fights in middle school in silver spring - over 20 years ago. do I think it was a trashy school? yes. it was awful (wasn't TP).
So my parents threw me in private. Saw 1 girl fight in 4 years of private HS. that's it. just 1. |
People who making sweeping generalizations usually fall into the trashy category. Your reflection is staring back at you. |
You won't find fights in private high school. That's not the private school MO. Some private school kids are subversive in their methods, and when they're caught, Daddy and Mommy always come to the rescue. product of private schooling - can be a sick environment in many cases My own kids attend our local public. |
