[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The protests today mean more if students are disciplined. Most colleges are accepting of it. Don't fight your kid's battles. [/quote] Why do you think this? The students aren't protesting against the schools. This isn't "us" vs. "them". Teachers and administrators are at risk from gun violence too! ACLU has said that legally students can receive the same consequences they would receive if they walked out for a non-political reason but not more, or schools can waive the consequence. Many schools have waived the consequence, and have even helped students figure out a plan to safely walk out. I would have my kid serve the detention, and then I'd pick him up from school and do something to communicate how proud of him I was. [/quote]
