my point is what?  my point is that you think that private schools are "better" at dealing with sexting and bullying because they can expel students.  but that isn't really dealing with it, is it?  rather, that is shipping the student off to be another school's problem.  look, i am a private school parent as well, but let's be honest about these issues.  and let's also realize that being happy that children can easily be expelled from (or counseled out of) can also come back to bite us if it is OUR child who is the perpetrator.  in the end, it is how the parents are dealing with it that really matters.

What do you think a private school can do to assure the victim and the victim's parents after a repeat offender has not been expelled? You seem to be concerned only about protecting the perpetrator, not the victim. It would be a terrible environment for the victim of repeated bullying to have to go to school to face a student who refuses to give up unacceptable behavior. What would you do to reassure a student that she can go to school in a non-hostile environment? I think it is fair, when we are dealing with middle schoolers and above, to expel repeat offenders. How many chances do you think a student needs? Why do you hold students to such low moral standards? [/quote]

If you think a top donor's kid will be expelled for bad behavior you are very sadly mistaken.[/quote]
