[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Detentions and suspensions are pointless. They accomplish nothing. They just be gotten rid of completely. Restorative justice is better but isn't appropriate for all scenarios where a response is needed.[b] They need to look at the issues and figure out what to put in place to support the social, emotional, and behavioral needs of their students[/b] and to find consequences that lead to learning and improvement.

That is the parent(s) or guardian's job.  School is for education.  [/quote]

Depends on the diagnosis, though. A lot of kids act out mainly in school due to separation anxiety or school-based social anxiety, etc. Sometimes it is specific to just one class or time of day. In such cases it's much harder for the parents to do much other than give suggestions and maybe break out the Zoloft. Different story if the child is also acting out at home in the same ways.[/quote]

Most of those kids definitely are no angels at home.[/quote]

Do you know most of them?[/quote]
