[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some little whelps called someone a name but instead of punishing just the name callers seems the whole school and parents have been sent to sensitivity training. Two updates from the principle declaring how the student are being constantly told how bad this is in less than 12 hours.

I think they know its bad. Thats why the two obnoxious ones used it. This overkill is absurd... especially the bit about demanding the kids dont use "gender-charged" words.

What the heck are gender charged words???

Good grief...

One could look at the situation as a problem with just the 2 kids. They're bad apples, punish them. Or one could realize issues around racism are a systemic problem and if 2 kids feel free to use the word without blinking an eye that there is a bigger problem in the community and the community needs to be educated and rehabilitated.

So not absurd or overkill. It's probably the one and only time these behaviors were reported after likely many unreported times it's happened.[/quote]
