[quote=Anonymous]I just got word that my MS kid has been suspended from school for wandering the halls without a pass: the third suspension in less than a year. I am really at a loss, since neither I nor my husband was ever suspended for anything. Heck, I never even saw the inside of the VP's office! My spouse's father would have beaten him within an inch of his life if he had been suspended, and mine would have grounded me for months. But the authoritarian approach just doesn't work with this kid: the last time we tried, she ran away, during a major snowstorm, no less. I don't really want any suggestions. This was a school offense, and the school is right to impose its consequences. But I am angry and deeply, deeply ashamed of her behavior. Just need to put that out there.[/quote]
